Team working and Subversion (SVN) or just no source control?

Is it possible to set up HelpStudio so multiple people can work on the help project at the same time, without using an MSSCCI provider? We use SVN for our source code control, so I'd either like to integrate with that, or just manage it by having different people working on different files. Is this possible?

In our current setup it seems that all the text of the help is stored in one hsp file, making it difficult to have more than one person working on it at a time. I see the file itself is an xml file. If it's not possible to integrate with SVN or to split the project into multiple files, if people were to edit separate copies of the hsp file could we simply perform a 'merge' to combine the changes? Or are there complex data structures in the xml file that wouldn't deal with simple text file merging?

thanks,
