Hi Gillian, Other than the diff report (which I assume provides more details than just a time/date stamp) is SVN useful?
I've been wanting some centralized document management for our FrameMaker (and other) files for a long time. We have several folks that author materials, sometimes in teams. I'd like to have check in/check out and versioning at the very least. It would be really cool to be able to metatag content and search for it also. Folks have mentioned going to MIF files or XML. Wouldn't those options add steps to the workflow? I assume they (MIF or XML) would affect the workflow in a similar fashion. Also, going to XML would require structure (I assume) so I don't think we're ready for that. We've started to use structure in some docs, but I haven't had time to implement that broadly. What is PDM? Thanks, don.
