I am also looking for a software tool to help my group manage many documents
with multiple versions. We are on a Novell network, and last year we tried a
software package called Versions for Documents 1.1 (Advanced Team Document
Creating and Control). We did not like Versions -- found it cumbersome.
However, they may have a new version out that is easier to use.
Any recommendations?

Hey everyone,
I would like to generate a discussion on managining
many documents (about 60) with multiple versions of
each (about 8). Our company is trying to resuse text
(much like code reuse) and develop a system of
configuration management for our docs.
Can anyone recommend specific tools? We are a Mac-based
company so I would especially welcome recommendations
for that platform.
I apologize if this topic has been covered before. Some
weeks I get so busy I don't have time to read the TECHWR-L
digests. Consequently, I'm not aware of all the topics
that are discussed here.
Thank you.
