If you want to get excessively grammatical:

	User = noun, sungular
	Users= noun, plural
	User's = noun, singular, possessive
	Users' = noun, plural, possessive

Any of the four could grammatically appear before "Group" .

"User's" implies "only one".  Sort of "I am the only Linux user."
"Users'" implies "many."  "I am one of many Linux users."
"User" and "Users" act as noun adjuncts; that is, nouns acting as adjectives 
telling "what kind of" group just as in "school house" , "school" tells "what 
kind of house.

My choice would be "Users" as it implies multiple users, and lacks the 
clutter of the apostrophe, which, in a logo, is really unnecessary.
