Relative paths work fine for me as long as they point to subdirectories.
However, I could never get something like ../figures to work on Mac Os X,
but that might be my ignorance.

What would be very nice is some sort of downloadable archive with some
sample basic project structures.
Reading the stuff above I still have no idea how to build a directory hierarchy for my project such that it can do all that the project management part of ConTeXt promises.
Do you *need* different directories? Perhaps it's sufficient to name your components so that you can easily see what belongs where.
AFAIK ConTeXt looks always into the parent directories, but not in parallel/child directories if not explicitly specified. (E.g. you can define a figures path.)
Did you have a look at the wiki: http://contextgarden.net/Project_structure
Certainly I did, and I used the scripts that were linked there. But none of the explanations give examples of directory hierarchy. Take for instance images. I've set up a directory for images. But the only way I can get ConTeXt to find the images is to have an absolute path in the directory
\setupexternalfigures[directory=/Volumes/Data/Users/gerben/Documents/ Prive/book-context/images,
maxwidth=\textwidth]
I have my chapters (components) in book-context and my product file in book-context/products
But I would like some directory structure *without* this absolute path, if only because it does not work when mirrored to my laptop where the home directory is quite somewhere else.
