Some working groups (and pre-WGs, as with IDNAbis) delegate a small
design team to make faster progress, and such a design team often works
via private conference calls and the like. However, as far as I know,
there is no design team for the VWRAP WG. Therefore, IMHO all the work
should happen in as open a fashion as possible. Now, no one expects a
document author to use some sort of collaborative editing software so
that everyone can help out in real time. On the other hand there is a
great deal of expertise on this list regarding virtual worlds and I
would expect the document author to be engaging the list in a dialogue
regarding open issues, thorny problems to be solved, etc., as a way to
make progress on submitting an Internet-Draft. Publish early, publish often.

My $0.02.
