I am not advocating we stop mailing each other ;-)
Discussions via email are certainly central to the WG!
The reason for the Wiki is that as a WG we have to deliver a schema at
the end.
The Wiki has the advantage that everybody sees in real-time the latest
status and can easily contribute. Another option would be to write down
things in text documents and mail them around, but this is a less
scalable and possibly slower approach.
