I have built a parser that can analyze the syntax of SGML documents.
However, i know there are some defects (and i expect a lot more i
don't know about).  In order to find those i'm currrently unaware of
(lots i'm sure), i'd like to form a collection of valid and specific
invalid SGML documents to serve as a regression test data base.

I believe there is a CALS testing service, but my parser isn't
stable enough for formal, rigorous (and costly?) testing.

If I collect enough useful samples,
I will make them available via anonymous FTP archive.
