As projects come and go, so too will your group members. Undoubtedly, you'll need to add and remove members over the life of the group; you might even need to add or remove group owners.
Any member of a public group can add others to the group, but only the group owner can remove them. By default, the group owner is the person who created the group but others can be assigned this role as well.
