Rails - Dec 2007 - Preserving upload directories on cap deployment

I am not totally sure how to do this.  Obviously I would want to create
some sym links to the directories outside the project, so where do you
guys find the best place to place the folders is (ex.
/project_uploads/[project_name]) ?

Or is there a better way, ie. moving items through capistrano?

Thanks.

This is what I have done.  Not sure if it is the best way, but it works 
well.

desc "Sync the uploads to the new current project"
  task :sync_uploads, :roles => [:app] do
    run "mkdir -p #{shared_path}/uploads"
    run "chown #{user}:#{user} #{shared_path}/uploads/"
    run "ln -nsf #{shared_path}/uploads
#{current_path}/public/uploads"
  end

I just make sure the uploads are saved in system/uploads/ (the system  
folder symbolic link is made my capistrano). That way I don''t have to  
worry about putting it in my deploy.rb file.
