Groups API Questions - Memberships

Questions

1. Do memberships have enabled/disabled dates?
2. Can you filter by immediate, nonimmediate, all memberships (i.e. immediate if it can be directly unassigned, non immediate if due to another membership)?

COmanage responses

1. Not currently.
2. This will be probably be required.

Grouper responses

1. Do memberships have enabled/disabled dates?  Yes, I think this is useful in the underlying groups store, though not sure if it needs to be supported in the fifer API
2. Can you filter by immediate, nonimmediate, all memberships (i.e. immediate if it can be directly unassigned, non immediate if due to another membership)?  If this is used by UI, then you need to know if something can be directly unassigned, i.e. an immediate vs non-immediate

uPortal responses

1. No.
