Macromedia 'Contribute' passed our evaluation with flying colors. As Mike Rippy suggests, having a organizational model that enables broad content participation while preserving controls can be an elusive objective. This software seems to let you tailor permissions quite finely, putting control points just about wherever you'd want them.
Alas, here we still march on with a single code-person performing design and coding on off-line content. Contribute is $150 per, possibly less with edu discount if your should qualify. It wants to work with Dreamweaver.
