Seconded.
I *have* used it for a production run and whilst it is not perfect it
makes document creation and editing significantly easier than typing
'raw' xml even into a syntax-aware text editor.
It is also very helpful for proof reading and commenting (spell checker
provided).
And the standard version is free.. and supported on Windows, Linux and Mac.
I used to use the Word template but the freedom from hassle of
generating the final documents, the ease of generating references makes
xxe/xml2rfc
and support of complex numbered lists (almost impossible to achieve in
Word) means I am never going back.

This is my impression, from trying to use it as well. I was troubled by
'yet another embedded text system' that necessitated editing source,
which seemed like a stone-age throwback when I abandoned such systems in
the mid 1980s (Scribe, nroff, etc. at the time).
While I appreciate that, in theory:
1. there are WYSIWYG XML editors that *can* be loaded with DTDs
2. Word et al. are moving to XML
Bill Fenner has made a plugin available for the XMLMind XML Editor
that gives you a lot of assistance in writing XML2RFC documents.
I haven't used it for "production" yet, but it looks wonderful - not
WYSIWYG, but WYSIPU - What You See Is Pretty Useful.
