Hmm. As someone who has just sent a revision-marked draft to an IETF mailing 
list (in proprietary file format, too, I’m ashamed to say), I was somewhat 
worried about the potential for confusion if someone else happened to be 
editing another copy of it at the time.

If Github offers ways to help with version control on collaborative docs, I 
think that is to be encouraged.
