What format is the documentation going to be in? 

Unfortunately, I don't know of any good document control systems.
CVS might be the closest, but it really isn't meant for documentation.
It's a tool that programmers generally like and writers (at least
the ones I've talked to...) generally hate. 

What features are you looking for? I mean, are you looking for something
just to hold & catalog documents or do you need to do diffs on the
files and be able to "roll back" files? Will multiple authors
be working on the same document, or will a lot of authors be 
contributing their own documents? 

Take care,

Zonker
