MPEG-2 will be better cause it is very popular format, contains interlaced structure. Of course, Divx and XVid have more optimal compression algorithm, VP6 decoder give best results on the lower bitrates, but DIVX, XVID or VP6 are formats for the surfer or paysite members - their advantages, small size, good and the excellent quality. But making DIVX, XVID files, video editor must know that your pure video source is interlaced (DV or MPEG-2) in most cases and the deinterlacing algorithms must be used. If you have expensive camera which could shot truly progressive video (720p) for HDTV, deinterlacing task will not occur.
In your case give to the editors MPEG-2 files and they will be able to make DVD disk, encode them to DIVX, XVID or WMV
IMHO WMV have the strict requirements for the PC hardware in a playback.
