I want to start building specimen documents that fit the model of 
interoperability assessment that is sketched (sketchily) at 
<https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Corinthia/ODF> under the "ODF 
Conformance/Compliance Assurance helix."

My thought is to create a branch having a folder, "InteropAssess" with 
subfolder "ODF" to start a subtree of folders that develop specimens that 
demonstrate particular aspects of ODF documents.  These can be used as test 
suites but are not intended to be the same as ad hoc tests created to 
exercising particular Corinthia and DocFormats functions.  Rather they are 
addressed to the standards and any profiling of processors, with DocFormats 
being only one.

MY HESITATION

I don't quite like putting these in a Git repository because it is important 
and useful to cross-reference among the materials and I am not clear how that 
can happen in a non-web repository system.  I do know how to make it work with 
a SubVersion repository because one can use the fact that the SVN is part of a 
web site and can be navigated with a browser.  One can even put HTML pages in 
an SVN repository and use (relative) links to cross-reference among the 
material.

That is an extremely valuable way to do what I have in mind.

Is this possible with the Corinthia Git repository?

Is it possible to reach into the Corinthia Git repository trunk or some stable 
branch via URLs?  

An useful case would be to cross-reference between folders under 
"InteropAssess" and the Corinthia Confluence Wiki?

An alternative would be to use the Corinthia web site, but I don't know what is 
in mind for that and how one deals with the responsive design and all that.  I 
am really talking about flat, static HTML pages working somehow.  If there is 
to be responsive design, it must work with some sort of simple template or even 
some kind of MarkDown usage.  

What do folks see that could work here?

If not, I think I would rather do this outside the Corinthia project using a 
web site that I can manage myself.
