If you are using the Branch-level ACL, you might have "Developers" and
"QA" or "Manager".

Or, you might set up permissions differently for each module, in which
case you would need more groups as well (or, spend a lot of time doing
the ACL's a user at a time).

In my setup, where we enforce very little process, we just have
everybdoy as writers and two people as admin.
