Reiterating what Elliot said, I'm not sure it matters much; I'm only
concerned about what makes sense for our publishing routine, and what
will be of the greatest value for later automation (to whatever extent
is possible).  Sorry I didn't give a better example when I did the OP,
but the idea of "docs/some-tutorial-en/fc4/" seems best to me, since it
might enable more of the build to be pasted over from Docs CVS en masse.
