It could also be as simple as creating a simple email group used for a specific task. No need to create a private mailing list. Once the task is complete the email group is disbanded and the results are made public in due course. Of course the email group would always have to include some members of the SC for transparency at the SC level. What would really be needed is a secure site to hold the documentation being worked on; part of the wiki that would be accessible for only certain members. Unless the newly created email group/mailing list decided to delegate the care of the documentation in some members hands. But yes, there should be a way for some groups to work in a secure area where such materials may be considered "time or public" sensitive.
I think a mailing list is best, because we then have archives and know how to deal with it. Another tool will just cause confusion. :-)
As for the wiki or collaboration tool, someone suggested Etherpad. Anyone has experience?
