Can someone give me up do date information on DNN SiteGroups?

Is there a module for administering sitegroups?  (I found a GitHub project from Stefan Cullman, but no releases.  Does that mean that I have to download it and build it myself?

9.6.2 was the first to have Sitegroups on board by default.
Look in the 'manage' section.

OK, now the questions begin.

I created a test 9.6.2 installation with a portal, and 2 child portals.

I created a site group with the Portal 0 as the master and assigned Portals 1 and 2.

I added a module to the home page of Portal 0 that I want to add to the home pages of Portals 1 and 2.

If I go to the home page of Portal 1 and click the Add Existing Module, I see no place to select the source as Portal 0.

What am I missing?

I also tried this on 9.7.1 rc-1 with the same result.

just tested and you are right.
As I used the feature for sharing users, I did not detect this earlier. Would you be so kind to log in issue on Github?

Interesting that this seems to have been missed in updating the UI. I found a blog post from Michael Tobisch Torsten Weggen with screen shots showing it in an older version.
