Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

[Michael R Gettes <>]

Yeah, I saw that… such count based (or percentage based) failsafes, IMHO, 
really aren’t the right thing to do when you have large populations leaving 
the institution - departmental losses, student graduations and so on.  It’s 
only after a certain period of time it is safe to remove people.  I have 
added the GRP-1369.

Thank you!
