Our core group of four has been together since 2000; we converted from 2E in 2001. The three others currently in our group were between added 2-3 years ago.

We've got:
Male student, early 20s
Male graphic designer, mid 20s
Female insurance manager, 28
Male lighting technician, 29
Male software architect, 30
Male teacher, 31
Male support tech, mid 30s

We started a 3.5 Adventure Path at the beginning of this year. It will probably run until 2010. One guy has the 4E books and we might try a couple one-shots between now and then, but the AP will be our main game until it's complete.

I am doing little impromptu questionnaire cross posted from here and could use your help. :D
Well, my longrunning game broke up recently, but here are the answers from that group.

How long has your group been playing together?
We have played together for about 4 years, we've stopped playing recently over some personal strife with one member, and jobs and work are making it hard for us to schedule new games.

What are the ages, genders, and professions of the people in your group?
A female 55 year old retired university social sciences instructor
A male 26 year old law librarian
A male 24 year old computer programmer
A female 25 year old computer programmer
A female 23 year old grocery store clerk
A male 25 year old legal courier
A male 34 year old high school teacher
A male 29 year old telephone operator

What edition are you playing?
D&D 3.5 (Forgotten Realms), pretty close to Rules As Written. No interest in playing 4e from pretty much anyone in the group.

With additions and subtractions, the group I work with now has been together for... can it be 15 years now? The current roster:

53, male, editor
38, male, currently software project/product manager
35, male, bio-pharmaceutical quality assurance engineer
35, male, electrical engineer
34, female, veterinarian

We tend to switch game systems around a bit more than most, and are not married to a single game or edition.

2 non-D&D and 2 D&D games - We're currenting playing an oWoD Mage game and a Shadowrun game using their respective rules. For our two D&D campaigns we're using 3e with some 3.5 elements. Likely to use Pathfinder for my next campaign after the current one is over.

The current main group I am in has been playing for 5 years, though the core of the group has been playing since the early 90s.

Let's see, group demographics:
Male, 43, Administrator/Desktop Publisher/Editor
Female, 42, Legal Executive Assistant
Male, 45, Unemployed Medical Admin
Male, 50, Theatrical Technician/Instructor
Female, 43, College Instructor
Male, 46, Hydrological Engineer
Male, 45, Computer Programmer
Male, 24, Theater Technician, Puppeteer
Female, 24, Singer
Male, 45, State Bureaucrat/Computer Programmer

I think that is everyone! We currently play a hybrid of D&D 3.0 with a bit of 3.5, Arcana Evolved, and some personal additions thrown in. Still, the main rules are 3.0 D&D. This group meets every other Sunday from late October to early June. We play from noon to 6pm, just as a reference.
