AW Groupies
Purpose
Serious technical discussion about Linden Lab's 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 Zha Ewry), but the criterion is simple. Show up and contribute to the AWG, at 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:
Contact anyone with root on openmv.org for an account if you are in the AW Groupies group in-world.

Work-In-Progress
