Hi Brandon,

the markdown already supports relative urls for images and all other
resources. However right now all resources except the markdown are kept in
src/main/site while the markdown is located in src/main/markdown.

I am open for discussing that we might want to change that and if that
gives us any benefits, but it would definitely go away from the standard
maven approach. Right now its easy to separate between markdown and
structural files and all other resources. This would get harder going
forward.

relative links already work, so is this advantage gone?

Why is that?
