I am not aware of any virtual analog to this, A non-WG mailing list is the closest digital analog [sic!] we have. (Getting that has a lot more ceremony than the traditional bar BOF had. That maybe needs to be adjusted down slightly now. Garbage collection remains a problem.) Of course, you can also go ahead and schedule "side meetings”, i.e., web conferences, but these happen entirely outside the shell of the IETF (yes, like bar BOFs, except that these are strongly linked to an actual IETF meeting by colocation).
