Title: RE: [docbook-apps] Docbook images/graphics. Where do you keep them?

We have over 15000 books in 
multiple languages on docs.hp.com, so we share the assets.  We use a 
versioned directory on the Web site that has all our branding assets (cascading 
style sheets for each locale, logos, admonition icons, etc).  We can also 
package up the assets with a build for placement when the internet may not be 
available (such as on CDs) but we generally produce the documents pointing at 
the common assets folder on docs.hp.com.  This is controlled by a parameter 
in our build environment that can be overridden by a user value in a parameter 
override file that is processed when the document is built.

I'm not sure how "smart" our solution is, but we copy them to 
per book folder: http://example.com/book/graphics. 
This way we can ensure that every book has the proper images. The same folder is 
used to hold product logos and other standard images.

You build a docbook html 
book|article|website.
This refers to some of the graphics in the xsl 
distribution.
If they are linked from your disk, to another disk 
location,
it breaks when you put them on your website.

How do you 
manage this? Anyone got any 'smart' solutions?

http://example.com/docbook/graphics 
or something as simple as that?
