My only comment is that Google docs did not always work correctly for  
me.  E.g. at some point toward the end of the process, I lost the  
ability to add comments.  But hey, it's a big pile of JavaScript so I  
can understand it'll be buggy. :)

When it did work, it was pretty convenient.  I don't think too many  
PEPs will need that kind of high bandwidth collaborative environment,  
but it's nice to have when you need it.
