I've worked at places where the ISO 9001 Quality manual was nothing more 
than a static web site with links to PDF documents. EFP would surely be 
more flexible, and if you can tie content to an issue-tracking system, 
then it would be very interesting.

I've been away from ISO9001 activities for 5+ years now, but I wonder if 
there are open-source issue-tracking systems adapted to ISO9001. A quick 
Google didn't turn up anything obvious.
