SYMPTOMS

lowercase extended characters.
WORKAROUND
==========
To work around this problem, you should take these precautions:
- Enter groups manually, all converted to uppercase.
- Wait 4 hours before importing resources.
- Create custom groups with all uppercase names, no extended characters in each
domain.
- Do not create the same group name in any two domains.
