Re: Automated benefits list (was Re: Some more examples done)

Hi Berna,

Hang on... we should use example.org (or .com, or .example) Those are
reserved for documentation. But, don't make them hyperlinks. Instead,
write the text as ....example
.org and link to the data with a descriptive word. Something like

data.mycity.example/foo/bar [CSV] where the CSV text is linked to a file
containing data that refers to the .example URI.

Doable?
