[tei-council] Target of links in Guidelines generation

[Martin Holmes]

Hi all,

I regularly use the "last successful build" version of the guidelines 
provided by our jenkins servers to see the current state of the glines, 
and I occasionally point other people to it. One thing that's a bit 
annoying when you do that is that links in the reference pages are 
generated hard-coded to the release version of the glines on the TEI 
site. So if you go here:

<http://teijenkins.hcmc.uvic.ca:8080/job/TEIP5-Documentation/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/Guidelines-web/en/html/ref-variantEncoding.html>

you'll see that the link to the relevant chapter dealing with 
<variantEncoding/> points to 
<http://www.tei-c.org/release/doc/tei-p5-doc/en/html/TC.html#TCAPEN>.

It would be nice if these could be turned into relative links, so that 
when you browse around the latest state of the glines, you don't find 
yourself jumping out to the release version without realizing it.

Before I start trying to figure out where and how this happens, does 
anyone think it _should_ happen? Would there be any disadvantage to 
making these links relative?

Cheers,
Martin
