Bug 673401

Description of problem: These are my notes on the holes I found in the chapter on creating a distributed <set>.

My svn repository:

A note that the repository link should stop the directory before the directory the books are in. Ie, for mine, it is rnewton/set_example/<books>

A note about how, if your books deviate from that umbrella directory, you can specify the path from the point it deviates. ie: 

books: en-US/Administration_Guide
svn: rnewton/set_example/

publican.cfg requires you to use colons instead of equals so:

books: Adminstration_Guide 
rather than
books = Administration_Guide

Until the thing is fixed with the set.xml file, remove Revision_History.xml and <remark> from the default set.xml file.

publican.cfg must be present in each book, which isn't really a problem if you're pulling from normal books, unlike me, I suppose, but perhaps still good to note.

Make changes in the svn copy, not the set copy.

I couldn't get the Red Hat brand to work and used JBoss instead.

It doesn't seem to matter whether your main .xml is underneath an en-US directory, it still asks you to simply go:
book_directory/book.xml in the my_set.xml file.
