Reread your post today and I am not sure whether svn will meet your
expectations with Word docs.
A diff of two .doc versions will look ugly even in the otherwise
excellent filemerge viewer. Unless you don't want to track changes and
only manage versions.
Maybe someone else has another option for do***ent versioning.
