Nothing official, unfortunately. A couple of files here and there. But such an
effort would be very appreciated.

Latex is a good choice, since you want to incorporate the docs in your thesis.
I personally think in the long run using DocBook might be better. Unfortonately
the DocBook tools are not up to the level of reliability of LaTeX, from what
I've seen.

So just use whatever suits you best, as long it's an open format. MS Word DOC
files would be really, really bad ;)
