We actually use SVN for our .Net projects via the AnkhSVN plugin for Visual
Studio .Net 2008.  It's better than Sourcesafe 6 but not as good as Team

If they are using docbook, XSL stylesheets can be used to enforce formatting
guidelines, and since XML is a text format, SVN would be fine for
revisioning and change control.
