Perry Mowbray:
Perry, have you set it up on Gdocs, and added us with the appropriate permissions? If so, shoot me a link and I'll start taking a look...

From the email that GDocs sends out you need to use the 'Open in new window' link, not the 'Show preview' link (as that seems to just open in GMail.

wraith808:
It depends on the settings on the document.  When being added, you have to be given the ability to comment.  It works very well, and versions.

Actually the settings are to allow:

* Editing
* Comments
* Viewing
Everyone has edit rights...

Everyone has *view* rights.  Everyone doesn't have edit rights.  I've seen it in practice (we use google at work) where I can comment, but not edit.  Or view and do nothing.  If you have edit rights, you have all the others... but the others are more granular.

Found the problem - you can't do anything if you have Revision History open, which, AFAIAC, is just plain stupid.

I get it now... you were saying that everyone had been set up with edit rights.  d'oh.  I thought you were saying no matter what, everyone had edit rights.  :-[
