The built-in 'groups' system doesn't affect any of the permissions on 
patchwork at the moment. To allow a user to alter patches, they need to 
be a 'maintainer' of the project that the patch belongs to.

To make a use a maintainer, just open their UserProfile page in the 
admin interface, and select the appropriate 'maintainer groups'.

Cheers,


Jeremy
