Q: Lotus Notes as a doc. mgmt. system

[Doug Montalbano <doug_montalbano -at- CC -dot- CHIRON -dot- COM>]

     My company has balkanized its document groups by plant site and
     business unit.  Some of us are looking for ways to manage docs and
     revisions in a 'public' manner, so that the other doc groups can know
     what's happening in real time in our neck of the woods.

     Some of our groups are looking at Lotus Notes to provide a
     document-management tool that's considerably less expensive than, for
     example, Documentum or Interleaf, and more easily customizable.

     We have in mind using LN to log proposed changes in already existing
     docs, track their revision cycle, track their approval cycle (who, how
     long), collate emendations to the revisions -- the whole megillah.

     Has anyone out there had experience with LN used in this manner?
     If so, I'd be interested in hearing your stories.  Please make the
     replies to me at

     .  If there's enough interest, I'll summarize and post to the List.

     (Joel Cambron, I know your group uses the thing.  I look forward to
     your reply ;-)   )
