TFS Default Group Membership for the Project Administrator group

We have been using TFS 2010 for about 6 months and we have decided to alter the default CMMI v5 Process Template to add default memberships to the TFS security groups.

When creating a new Team Project we want to default the membership of the Project Administrators and Readers groups with known Active Directory Groups. We have successfully added the ourDomain\TechnologyDivision to the projects Readers group. So all of Technology has read access to all newly created TFS Team Projects. (We have a rather small technology division so this is not a security issues for us, it may be for others.)

We would also like to add the ourDomain\ProjectManagementTeam to the Project Administrators Group. Unfortunately we we have been unsuccessful at this as the process template does not show the Project Administrators Group.

We have tried altering the underling xml files by adding the Project Administrators group manually, but this also did not work. When creating a new TFS Project with this template I received an e开发者_JS百科rror on creation, my assumption is that it failed when attempting to create the Project Administrators group and one already existed.

Has any one had any luck ad altering the default membership of the Project Administrators group?

Here is an image of the default groups that are listed in the process template.
