Building an ODF Intranet Portal?

The requirements are: version control — including diff and merge capabilities for ODF; integration with OpenOffice for check-in/out as a starting point; a Web-based CMS for group sharing of files (preferably one that can be extended to perform other tasks); and network authentication for the CMS (so users don't have to login twice). The eventual aim is to be able to bundle all this up in some way: 'apt-get odf-portal', for instance. Which FLOSS tools would you use for this job? How would you handle diffs and merges for ODF documents?"

KnowledgeTree doesn't do everything you want, but it is an easy to use web application that supports plugins (addons).

I'm sure it doesn't do everything you want out of the box, but you wanted FLOSS for a reason, right?
