I also do not understand relational segments.

Here is a link to a test page in OpenACS which uses a rel_segment:

rel-segments-test.sql

A relational segment creates a subgroup where all members have the same rel_type to the original parent group.

Example from the above:

 -- the segment of all parties that are blah members of G
 seg_G_blahs := rel_segment__new(null,
   ''rel_segment'',
   now(),
   null,
   null,
   null,
   null,                                  
   ''Blahs of Group G'',
   G, 
   ''blah_member_rel'',
   null
);

Here is a search on all of OpenACS code, many examples of creating specialized rel_segments:

Relational Segments Search

Note that this is a 5-10 second search due to the size of the source code
