=Purpose=
This is a placeholder for this page.
Serious technical discussion about Linden Lab's [[Architecture Working Group|Architecture Working Group (AWG)]].  "AW Groupies" is an unofficial, Resident-operated group, though most (all?) members also participate in the AWG.
 
Invite only (apply in-world to [[User:Zha Ewry|Zha Ewry]]), but the criterion is simple. Show up and contribute to the AWG, at [[User:Zero Linden|Zero Linden]]'s office hours, or on the Wiki, or on SL-Dev.
 
=Activities=
Currently, we seem to be meeting once or twice a week in-world, and the group IM chat has been quite lively.
 
Also members are quite active on the wiki and in the SLDEV mailing list.
 
A public SVN repository is open to all AW Groupies members here:
* http://openmv.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/archwg/
 
Contact anyone with root on openmv.org for an account if you are in the AW Groupies group in-world.

* [[AWG_Meeting_1|AWG I annual meeting transcript, participants' responses, etc]]
* [[AWG_Meeting_2|AWG II annual meeting transcript, video, participants' responses, etc]]

(if you post chat logs, you might want to use the [[User:Dr_Scofield/logtransform|sllog2wiki perl script]] to turn them into a more readable wiki table format ready to copy & paste into the chat log page)
 
Chat logs of AWGroupies meetings should be summarized on the wiki.
 
==Viewpoint Advocacy Groups==
 
[[Viewpoint Advocacy Groups]]  - groups to focus on specific requirements.

=Work-In-Progress=
 
Work-in-progress wiki pages are architecture pages that are (as the name implies ;-)) work in progress. Once the group has reached consensus that a particular topic is "good-to-go" we'll graduate that page to the [[Architecture Working Group|main AWG page]].
