To say this another way, using github (or other collaboration tools) is great 
for authors or a design team to work together to develop an Internet draft.  I 
do this myself.  I think the dividing line is that drafts should continue to be 
submitted via the datatracker as they are now and working groups be using the 
datatracker to do their work.  I would be very concerned if working groups 
started to do their work outside of the datatracker.
