Yep, preferably both in testing and 2.14 branch of docs...

Which makes me think about: is this data versioned?

OR should we create a 2.14 branch NOW, so people can download both

https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Training-Data/archive/master.zip

and/or

https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Training-Data/archive/QGIS-2.14-Training-Data.zip

QGIS-2.14-Training-Data would be a good branch name then?
