I was not aware of the efforts behind doclifter, and this sounds like it would be very useful. Word is an unfortunate fact of life, and some means to produce a troff document that can be edited in Word would really be useful. It turns out that the journal I'm considering is familiar with the issues through TeX. The have agreed to accept a PDF for the initial submission, and once accepted, will work with me to get something they can use to set the final manuscript. I also second the question: why do you need the CVS version of groff?
