Mohamed,
In regards to implementing the group membership API's, could you please
refer me to a document (if such doc is available)?
What are the specific group membership API's (interfaces) that one must
implement? Any reference would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Alireza

The group which lost the leader will automatically elect a new leader,
the other will maintain it's leader.

Yes, provided the group membership API's are implemented by the new
provider.
