What is that integration, exactly?  Is it just a case of editing
documents in a word processor and saving them back?

I have to say I don't understand what Sharepoint does, exactly, other
than cause trouble in my limited experience.  (It's thought to have
been the root for the systems next to Lucy's office becoming a warez
distribution centre recently, for instance.)  Also I recall that it
wasn't accessible to non-Windows (Internet Exploiter?) clients through
the web interface when I was expected to retrieve documents from it.

When it was causing grief at my previous establishment, in a way I
can't recall, I bookmarked things which looked suitable for what
people actually seemed to want to do.  (With the proviso that they
wouldn't do the right thing and use SGML/XML markup with appropriate
tools.)  Here's the relevant bookmarks extract for what it's worth; it
may have irrelevant entries (especially assuming commercial support is
relevant) and some may not actually be free software.  I don't know
why Drupal isn't in there.  I guess some other things I have
bookmarked under `general groupware' might also be relevant as they
typically seem to provide document management.
