RE: [docbook-apps] xref vs. olink

We decided to use only olinks because our content is used in a modular
way.  We can split files without concerns and if I publish a section or
chapter as a stand-alone document, the external and internal
cross-references are both handled appropriately.

So I'd say olink.
