Research direction

Start by reading process.hpp and the issue discussion, then compare the v1 and v2 compatibility expectations described there. Determine whether the missing common v1 header is an unintended break or an intentional incompatibility. Done should be a reviewed compatibility resolution or a clearly documented alternative for affected v1 users.

As far as i know there is no groups support in v2 for now - why compat was broken? without any alternatives...
