Use LaTex instead of Word?

[c0c0n3]

Some docs, e.g. architecture, will need small contributions from lots of people over an extended period of time. Turning on change tracking in Word (or Google docs) only works nicely if pages aren't edited heavily and often. Otherwise we could be in for integration nightmares. On the other hand, we could use LaTex + git to tame the collaborative editing beast.

The HoTT repo is a great example of how dozens of people managed to write a 600-page book in 6 months. See also: LaTex for collaborative writing.
