nor etherpad have the right kind of support, I've created a Google Docs<br>

That's the public edit link; at this point others should be able to<br>
*comment* but not edit the existing text. Avati/Vijay, I'll gladly add<br>
you as editors if you have Google accounts (or of course you're free to<br>
make a copy). I've added a bunch of my own comments already to get<br>
discussions started. >;-}<br>
