  For a profinite group $G$ we describe an abelian group $W_G(R; M)$ of
$G$-typical Witt vectors with coefficients in an $R$-module $M$ (where $R$ is a
commutative ring). This simultaneously generalises the ring $W_G(R)$ of Dress
and Siebeneicher and the Witt vectors with coefficients $W(R; M)$ of Dotto,
Krause, Nikolaus and Patchkoria, both of which extend the usual Witt vectors of
a ring. We use this new variant of Witt vectors to give a purely algebraic
description of the zeroth equivariant stable homotopy groups of the
Hill-Hopkins-Ravenel norm $N_{\{e\}}^G(X)$ of a connective spectrum $X$, for
any finite group $G$. Our construction is reasonably analogous to the
constructions of previous variants of Witt vectors, and as such is amenable to
fairly explicit concrete computations.
