Heh. I've been such a fan of transparent document formats for so long,
that at first I had no idea what Barry was talking about. My group
manages our internal documents quite well using Subversion...
but then our documents are primarily written in Markdown. We use the
Ikiwiki wiki compiler for the presentation details.
Even for my own documents, I keep them under source control. However for
my own documents I prefer reStructuredText. It gives easy outputs to
HTML, LaTeX, Postscript, PDF... and with a little web research, you can
get others, such as ODT. Through it all, the source file also provides
the plain-text form.
