Distributed publishing with Front Page

[Leigh Mason]

Greetings,
I am in search of ideas from other libraries where the use of 
MS Front Page has been implemented as the primary web editor among a 
distributed group of web authors.  Our automation 
department is currently attempting to do so and as the web site 
coordinator (and, I might add, not very warm to this idea of 
broadly implementing Front Page - I don't use it myself) I have some 
concerns about the use of the publish function from Front Page and 
the file management system which would be necessary to manage 
distributed publishing and prevent accidental file replacements and 
such.  

Has anyone applied Front Page in this manner?  

If so, was this approach successful?

If problems were identifed, how were they addressed?

What precautions, training and expectations were found to be 
helpful? 

Are there any tips for managing Front Page publishing in a 
distributed publishing environment?

Any help that might be offered would be appreciated.  Thanks!
