     15 <dd>Declares a name for a logical grouping of related permissions.  Individual 
     16 permission join the group through the {@code permissionGroup} attribute of the
     17 <code><a href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/manifest/permission-element.html">&lt;permission&gt;</a></code> element.  Members of a group are
     18 presented together in the user interface.

     20 <p>
     21 Note that this element does not declare a permission itself, only a category in 
     22 which permissions can be placed.  See the 
     23 <code><a href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/manifest/permission-element.html">&lt;permission&gt;</a></code> element for element for information 
     24 on declaring permissions and assigning them to groups.
