Just a head's up: www is the group id from Apache by default, so doing this, 
you'll make the files writeable by the webserver, generally not something you 
want to do.
It's better to create a seperate group, say 'wwwadmin'.

Problem with today's modular software: they start with the modules
    and never get to the software part.
