@ Chris : about the screenshots being in the same directory. The reason was that some screenschots were shared between projects. But you're right, it could be a problem if we want to take a project with us ... Up till now it has not been a problem, which does not mean it won't be in the future.
@ Robert about "You can get or update local read-only copies of the files without checking them out"
I had not understood that part ...
One of my developers told me it could take about 1O% extra-time to work with a source control system ... Are you OK with that as far as documentation is concerned ? It could bring advantages just before the release of a version, with a burden for the rest of the time. We have to figure out if it is worth it ... and if we are prepared to change a bit our processes.
I don't kwow why, but I have the impression that a source control system would be most cost-efficient when working with a modular documentation based on small topics, which is not our case ...
Thanks again.
Valerie
