Re: [dita-fa-edboard] Suggestion for DITA sample files repository

[Bruce Esrig <esrig-ia@esrig.com>]

I have recently received this request also, from someone I was explaining

It would be great if we had downloadable sets, each containing both source 
and output files.

http://dita.xml.org seems like a good place to host them.
