I would definitely encourage the usage of an open

files), such as fodt or some sort of Latex format, in the GIT repository.
This would greatly simplify differences between versions (if needed), and
thereby make it easier for those without write access to GIT to jump in,
edit the document, and submit a patch with their additions.
Not everybody will have a Latex editor at the ready. I don't know what fodt
is. Most people will have an ODT-compatible editor such as LibreOffice or
AbiWord (I think even MS Office can read/save ODT files since their 2007
edition).
