In response to Grant Lowe's question:

several groups.

I would prefer to work for several groups but do both the hard-copy and on-line
documentation. I would know
both worlds and would make sure both were in sync. (Would I be a SME ? :-} )
Also only notification of
changes/revisions would need to go to one person (me).
