A working group is in my sense simply a group of people that have regular
mailings and irc/im meetings about a subject. Also a working group should not be
about one project but rather about a group of related projects and it should
have representation from multiple projects (from all projects if possible) in
it.

So for example if some people from VRS and some from SEE (maybe some from DEE if
it isn't dead) would get together to talk about execution enviroments on a
regular basis then an execution enviroment working group would exist.

It's nice to hear that VRS is going forward :-).
