Hi Wellington,

Do you have the javadocs? If not, you can build them from the root of  
the Sakai source via 'mvn :javadoc:javadoc -Daggregate=true' and after  
it builds you'll have a 'target/site' directory. Take a look at the  
index.html for the javadoc.

org.sakaiproject.site.api.Site extends  
org.sakaiproject.authz.api.AuthzGroup which is actually where the  
members are added. The remove function is in there too.


cheers,
Steve
