While this may be a cumbersome solution, it may also be the easiest to manage. If I make a change in the third paragraph on the second page of X guide then I have to convey that in some way to the QA person and we need to track it to make sure that it gets done. In my opinion, using BZ to track the issue from start to patch to QA to inclusion is rather simple compared to doing this on the wiki or email or... > > The second idea is to write to the proposed docs-qa list to inform the > QA team that a doc has been changed and need to be looked over.

Once it is in the repo it is often too late to pull back out and make more changes or know if something has already been through QA.
