[iTowns-user] Issues running the iTowns demo

[marc at toolz.fr]

Hi,

We wanted to have a look at the iTowns Demo, I have followed the 
instructions on http://www.itowns-project.org/:
"git clone -b gh-pages https://github.com/iTowns/itowns.git
git clone https://github.com/iTowns/itowns-sample-data.git
python -m SimpleHTTPServer

Now open http://localhost:8000/itowns-sample-data/ in a browser and 
enjoy!"
Note:
with python 3 I had to change the line:
"python -m SimpleHTTPServer"
with
"python -m http.server 8000"

Unfortunately I keep on getting a:
"Error code: 404

Message: File not found.

Error code explanation: HTTPStatus.NOT_FOUND - Nothing matches the given 
URI."
in the browser, and:

"C:\Windows\system32>python -m http.server 8000
Serving HTTP on 0.0.0.0 port 8000 (http://0.0.0.0:8000/) ...
127.0.0.1 - - [23/Jun/2017 12:01:45] code 404, message File not found
127.0.0.1 - - [23/Jun/2017 12:01:45] "GET /itowns-sample-data/ HTTP/1.1" 
404 -
127.0.0.1 - - [23/Jun/2017 12:01:45] code 404, message File not found
127.0.0.1 - - [23/Jun/2017 12:01:45] "GET /favicon.ico HTTP/1.1" 404 -"
in the console.

I am running a Windows 10 machine with python 3.6 and the browsers tried 
are: firefox64 bit:'firefox nightly', windows edge, and chrome.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,
