CVS is very ... old if not ancient. For collaboration with LaTeX documents I am using SVN[1] as a centralized version control system (VCS) if my collaborators are not tech savvy. There are lots of handy tools available like [2] that made it possible to convince any ordinary user from using SVN. If I am working with tech savvy people, I tend to use git [3] instead. It is a *decentralized* VCS with much more possibilities and it is a bit harder to learn. But if you are familiar with git, you get advantages from offline commits, partial commits, and very good internal merging capabilities that solve most of the LaTeX integration process automatically. 1. https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Subversion_(software) 2. https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/TortoiseSVN 3. https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Git_(software) -- Karl Voit
