st: dropped groups in xtlogit fixed effects

Dear Statalisters,
I want to use a logit regression on panel data with country fixed
effects, therefore I am using xtlogit with fe at the end.
However I am getting two notes that i do not fully understand.
1st, Multiple positive outcomes within groups encountered
2nd, x groups (x obs) dropped becasue of all positive or all negative outcomes
can anybody explain what these mean and if they are a problem? It
almost halves my sample which may be a bit of an issue.
I must apologize for my stata ignorance, I am new a stata newby
Many thanks in advance for any help you may be able to offer,
Richard
