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.
In October 2010 the third iteration of the Working Group composed itself, with SophiaSharon, Eliza, and Bleu stepping down, and Aphrodite MacBain, Hana Furlough, and Bruce Mowbray stepping in. Eos Amaterasu was chair.
From March to October 2011, the Working Group consisted of Agatha MacBeth, Alfred Kelberry, Aphrodite MacBain, Bruce Mowbray, Calvino Rabeni, Eliza Madrigal, Eos Amaterasu, and Sunshine Vayandar. Bruce and Eliza co-chaired.
The Working Group of October 2011 through March 2012 is made up of Aphrodite Macbain and Alfred Kelberry as Co-Chairs of the group, Bruce Mobray as Recording Secretary, and stevenaia Michinaga as Guardian Mentor.
The Working Group of March 2012 through October 2012 is (as far as I understand it) made up stevenaia Michinaga as Guardian Mentor and (I belive) Alfred Kelberry as Co-Chairs of the group, Bruce Mobray continuing as Recording Secretary and Aphrodite Macbain, with periodic appearences from Eliza Madrigal, Bleu Olender and Storm Nordwind
