Well why would anyone want to spend more than two minutes reading Being and Time, much less two weeks?
The Scanlon thing fell apart because ADD and I chose an awful time run it, namely in the middle of the semester. That group may or may not start back up later this summer. As well, the Groundwork is a much less ambitious project. I think it's roughly the length of the first chapter of Scanlon, which we did finish, and both ADD and I have read it before.
ADD has suggested the edition by Hill and Zweig, but I've also heard good things about Mary Gregor's translation. Other big names in Kantian scholarship include Paul Guyer and Henry Allison, so if you have any of there stuff that's probably fine too.
I prefer the brand new (2008) Zweig translation, with Tom Hill's comments. I find it slightly easier to read than Gregor's, with 183 pages of commentary at the start of the book, including argument analyses.
