What a group read is reading. Written by the host into their own repo inside a page.cavu.groupread space, under the fixed skey 'self' — one per space, so the space ref alone identifies the group and there is no second record to keep in sync. Deliberately thin: the roster lives with whoever administers membership (the PDS's member list, or the managing app), and every member's own activity lives in that member's repo in the same space. This record carries only what the whole group shares — which book, what it's called, and when it runs.
