Thank You.
I'm modifying the updateUser to keep updated the groups associated to the
user.
I have two doubts

1) to get the current groups associated to a user, do I have any method? or
should I manually execute a query on the db?
2) I'm trying to use wfQuery to add/remove groups to the user, but I got an
error that says wfQuery is a undefined function.

Thanks.
