Hi Steve,

With the sample data I was a bit lazy, I must admit.
Steve had this network image and a table, so I just used it.

I know that it doesn't work so well for TSP and Driving Distance. Some
larger network would be better.
But then the SQL to copy and paste also becomes much larger.

Well, I'm glad if someone could provide a better but still simple sample
network for the documentation.
It's not so easy to find something that covers all algorithms and is still
simple.
Right now it's still the better option than no sample network ;-)

Daniel
