Well, my D&D group is a splinter of my In A Wicked Age game group; we're dipping in for a bit and then we'll see.
We've been playing together for about six months, although two of us have played together for 15 years.
We're all male, in our late 20s early 30s, with 2 guys in finance, one tech, one university student, and one teacher. The Wicked Age group is more diverse.
We're playing 4e right now, and that's our edition of choice.

How long has your group been playing together?
The core has been together since 1987, though one player from an earlier group (circa 1982) joined later, and the last player joined around 2003. We've had various people move away and come back, sometimes years at a time. Other than the two years in the early 90's, when I and my wife were stuck cross country, the group has been fairly constant.
What are the ages, genders, and professions of the people in your group?
41, male, software development (Me, usually the GM)
40, female, homemaker
41, male, software analyst, manager
40, female, homemaker (part time tech writer)
50, male, electronics repair
40, female, law enforcement
40, female, lawyer
41, male, nuclear technician (ex-navy)
40, male, farmer
40, female, veterinarian
15, male, student
What edition are you playing?
Starting 4E, finishing an Arcana Evolved game, working in a Burning Wheel campaign at times, and flirting with starting either a SWSE game, or a Fantasy Hero game. Realistically, we will only do two of those in any given year, though we are considering alternating 4E one-shot adventures with a campaign in another system.

We've been playing together (with some minor membership changes) since early 2005.
Male, 33 Linguist
Female, 26 Homemaker
Male, 30 Construction
Male, 29 IT support
Male, 29 IT support
Female, 24 Finance
Female, 26 Jeweller
former/on&off members:
Male, 33 IT support
Male, 32 Nursing
We most recently played 3.5 (with BESMd20 stuff jammed in). Right now we're doing two things at once - Star Wars Revised for the regular group, and a subgroup is messing with 4e; we are, however, scheduled to do a 3.5 game after SW. Between longer-term campaigns, we do minis and one-shots (most recently a two-session AFMBE, a one-shot of Cat, an a story arc of SotC).

Well I just moved across the country in February but my present gaming group has been playing together since June, we're all women in our 30s, working in customer service/the tech industry. We're playing my homebrew (of 16 years) under 3.x (lots of 3pp materials) and we've also just started up a 3.5 Eberron game. About half of us also play Shadowrun 4e once a month (which I mention only to state we play other things than D&D).
Edited to Add: I am the only one in the group with the 4e books, and also the only one interested in playing 4e. However, we're having great fun with our other games, so it's kind of a non-issue.
