Re: track changes in latex document



I've been successful with writing proposals with large groups using a wiki+latex. (Unfortunately, the success has been getting proposal out on time, not getting it funded.)

MediaWiki tracks changes just like a repository.

I've written some scripts to dump and transform the text from the wiki database and then compile it whenever a user wants a typeset copy.

If you're interested, I can provide more detail.

latexdiff, combined with an svn (or cvs *** Aack! Thbbbt! ***)
version archive of your files works very nicely.

I have taken part in many grant writing sessions, some lasting months,
some only days, and we very successfully use LaTeX with a repository.
It happened to be cvs, but I highly recommend using Subversion (svn)
instead.
