Example, if possible, of a core file that includes both Checklist and Occurrence data? #191

I'm sure this has come up elsewhere, apologies for missing where.

Given the background: https://ipt.gbif.org/manual/en/ipt/2.5/dwca-guide#dwc-a-components and https://ipt.gbif.org/manual/en/ipt/2.5/how-to-publish.

Are there examples of a single "core" file that mixes both Occurrence and Checklist records? For example I need to provide a unified summary of all the distribution data referencing both physical specimens and the literature that is amenable to human inspection in a spreadsheet or Open Refine format. Am I out of luck? And no, I do not want a full history of "MaterialCitation", 😉.

Side note-an https://ipt.gbif.org/manual/en/ipt/2.5/darwin-core#the-archive-format this link in "A typical package is illustrated in the diagram below and consists of components described in details here." is broken.

@mjy how would someone using such "mixed" data know if the stated distribution data was asserted from the physical specimen (e. g. on a label) or in the literature?
