The PaB Working Group is a group of PaB community members, appointed by the PaB community for a period of half a year at a time, and responsible for the day to day coordination and for making recommendations to the PaB community on the direction of community development.
The first 6 members were chosen, in October 2009, in the following way. An email was sent out to all guardians, to ask for volunteers to serve on the Working Group. 12 individuals responded. In the group of 12 we discussed the kind of tasks that needed to be done, and the amount of time it would probably take to do them. After further consideration, 6 of the 12 individuals told us that their time was too limited to take on the kind of commitment that we were looking for. The remaining 6 then formed the initial Working Group:Eliza Madrigal, Eos Amaterasu, Genesis Zhangsun, Maxine Walden, Pema Pera, and Storm Nordwind.
In April 2010, the second Working Group was formed. Pema Pera, Genesis Zhangsun, and Maxine Walden volunteered to rotate out, allowing a new structure with further emphasis in specialized areas, to form. Eliza Madrigal remained, volunteering as Chair for April through June, with Eos Amaterasu stepping into the role of Chair from July through September. Storm Nordwind remained as Inworld Coordinator. The group welcomed Bleu Oleander as Community Coordinator, Calvino Rabeni as Platform Coordinator, and SophiaSharon Larnia as Chronicle Coordinator.
Here is the way in which the current current Working Group Members have divided their responsibilities:
Eliza Madrigal: Regular Activites Coordinator
Eos Amaterasu: RL/SL Retreat Coordinator
Bleu Oleander: Community Coordinator
Calvino Rabeni: Platform Coordinator
SophiaSharon Larnia: Chronicles Coordinator
Storm Nordwind: Inworld Coordinator
Meetings take place bi-weekly on Tuesdays at 2pm SLT.
