Being in the situation of also writing specifications not targeting the IETF, I have been doing some research recently.

W3C use bikeshed which seems like a nice(r) alternative for non-IETF work.  I have yet to try it though.
If you need PDF, most browsers can do that as well.

The htmlized RFC format was OK until the hyper-links got smashed.

I currently see the "diff" utility as the main attraction.  There seems to be no such thing for rendered Web pages :(
