Curious about this, because our repo structure with example and src directories next to each other allows us to specify relative paths to source objects from within .pkg files in the AS project (even though src folder is outside the folder where the .apj lives). Can you elaborate on this? One example of such a reference that works in the axislib repo: <Object Type="Library" Language="ANSIC" Reference="true">..\..\src\ACP10Ar\AxisLib\ANSIC.lby</Object>

Yeah, you are correct that my statements are erroneous. After some more testing, I looks like the more accurate thing to say is along the lines of "AS doesn't allow absolute paths to reference packages that exist within the Logical folder". I think that's it. I also learned a little more about the allowable syntax of AS paths.
