Steve, you may also want to look at the Using Drupal book (O'Reilly press). It has a chapter on creating a Wiki which uses a few modules (but no any of the Wiki modules interestingly) to create this sort of content. Wikis definitely make use of revisions and the diff module and might give you some ideas for collaborative content.

Thanks, I'll have to play around with that some more...

You would for sure want to use Revisions (part of core, just need to set up on each content type. Check out each content type's edit page). There's a Diff module which will show the differences in each node, and there is a permission for reverting revisions, too. You could also look at using revision_moderation if you are wanting to approve each revision.
Thanks, also for the extra detail... again, I suspect, I will need to spend longer playing around with this stuff - it is, however, very helpful to know that I'm not trying to do something entirely new.
In the absence of a tutorial, by any chance, can anyone point me a a web site that uses drupal and revisions - so that I can get a feel for what can be done with the existing framework?
