Announcing Office 365 Groups + Team Sites integration!
Are there any updates on this release for FR, now that Ignite is about to wrap up?
We're on full tenant FR, and I we haven't received neither the Modern Pages nor the Group/Teamsite Integration.
MicrosoftIt's still being rolled out, thanks for your patience. Until then see this demo I gave this week: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JR9KJq_5BP8&feature=youtu.be
One thing I'm not sure on is when this comes online does it mean there is now no difference between a Team site created by a Group and one created within SharePoint? Would all the navigation options etc be the same.
Also is a normal intranet site meerly a public group without a fixed list of members?

From all the descriptions I've read, I'd say yes, a group has a site, and site has a group. Both should look the same, if created after the release of the update.
I'm not sure about existing team sites/groups.
Also I'm not quite sure what that means for the root site collection (https://tenantname.sharepoint.com) that's also based on the teamsite template I think.
In theory the group memberships (owner/members) should be the existing site memberships sitename owner/member of a teamsite. Visitors group does not appear to be used yet by groups.
Therefore I'm uncertain if the root site collection, that might already have custom permissions (e.g. everyone read), suddenly gets a group in AAD.
At Ignite I think I saw a demo where you can opt out of the Group part when you add a Team site.
