There is no consistency at all. Some WGs don't even have mailing list that 
work properly. For reasons I cannot fathom, some WG chairs expressed 
objectsion to the provision of a mailing list service by the IETF 
secretariat. [Lets not re-hash that discussion - I believe we reached a 
compromise.]

As for meetings outside meetings, I have found them to be useful; in many 
cases more useful than the meetings themselves (due to the ratio of active 
to non-active participants).
