Moved /doc/ to /doc-src/

Moved the doc/ dir to /doc-src/ so that the actual

+Users on %%site.name%% can create *groups* that other users can join.
+Groups can be a great way to share information and entertainment with
+a group of people who have a common interest or background.
+
+You can find out about groups on the server on the
+[Groups](%%action.groups%%) page. You can join a group by clicking on
+the "Join" button either in the group list or on the group's home page.
+
+Starting a new group
+--------------------
+
+If you want, you can start a new group for friends and people with
+common interests. Note that all groups are free for anyone to join.
+
+To start a new group, use the [new group](%%action.newgroup%%) tool
+and fill out the form. Describe your group as best you can if you want
+people to be able to find it.
+
+When choosing the nickname for your group, try to keep it short. The
+nickname is included in every message to and from the group, so the
+less chars the better. Try using acronyms for organizations, or
+airport codes for places (like 'pdx' instead of 'portland').
+
+Sending messages to a group
+---------------------------
+
+You can send a message to a group using the syntax "!groupname"
+anywhere in the message. If you have more than one group named, the
+notice will go to each group. Only members can send notices to a
+group, and groups do not respond to direct messages (DMs).
+
+Receiving messages
+------------------
+
+New group messages will appear in your inbox, and will also come to
+your phone or IM client if you've set them up to receive notices.
+
+Remote groups
+-------------
+
+While it's technically possible, this version of Laconica does not
+support remote group membership.
