Well, with not knowing your _exact_ needs, I'll make this recommendation... Look into WikiWikiWeb software. This has to be one of the best collaborative (this may be a negative for you) documentation systems I've ever used. It is easy to update, create, extend and do whatever you want. It is easy to maintain and monitor it's use. To see what it can do, check out... http://www.wikipedia.org/ You will see that they are maintaining an entire encyclopedia there. They also make their version of software available, but there are a lot of them availble so you could pick a version that suits you. The concept will always be the same. Sourceforge is a good place to start for the various available packages. -- Brian Ashe CTO Dee-Web Software Services, LLC.
