To those of you contemplating how to make a formal documentation sign-off part of your process:

Consider the possibility that once they are "responsible" <g> for the documentation, those who have to sign off on it will send you frantic updates and agonize *way* more than you do over word selection and comma placement up to and indeed beyond the deadline.

This is the first time we've done this and it's definitely a learning experience. :-)
