I know that, but this is not the history of these 2 groups (MAWG and 
MFWG). With the exception of the TPAC 2008, where these 2 groups have 
kicked off their activity meeting on Mon-Tue (MFWG) and Thu-Fri (MAWG), 
we have colocated these meetings (Ghent, December 2008), (Barcelona, 
April 2009).

The main reason is that there are common interest and need for sharing 
progress but very few overlap of people willing to attend both meeting 
(basically, only the chairs). We have discussed that in the past, and 
the conclusion was we better colocate meetings on same date and location 
and schedule a 2 hours joint session in order to be mutually informed of 
progress of each group and raise any specific questions. That has worked 
in the past.
