My suggestion is not going to help too much. And I risk sounding like the
guy who believes that following data flow to death or something like that.

Your problem is not so much the tool as a need to categorize and structure
your content.

You need to audit your content, break it up into generic types, define
standard structures and relationships, and then go looking for a tool that
will help you tie it all together and throw it at your users.

We're using a Wiki at our place... ever rummaged in an overstuffed drawer in
the dark?
