Yes and no. We still have a single set of nested groups -- the  
contact list is an AIListGroup which contains other AIListGroups.  It  
can also contain contacts, theoretically, at the 'root' level, though  
I think account code is currently carefully avoiding that.  Also,  
with subGroups:YES, it includes the contents of AIMetaContacts in the  
return array.

So if subGroups == NO, you get only the objects immediately in the  
passed AIListGroup. If that group is [[adium contactController]  
contactList] you end up with an array of just the groups; if it's  
another group you get just its immediate contents.
If subGroups == YES, you get only AIListContacts which are somewhere  
in the group->group->metacontact heirarchy from the passed group.
