Yes, we need to move those tests over to the json-ld.org site. Manu and I talked about it, but I haven't gotten around to it yet. I think we'd like to be able to both download and run the tests locally, as with other RDF test suites, and to have a site that will poke a responder using a version of the JSON-LD API, similar to how the RDFa crazyivan test suite works.

In any case, it will need some update based on recent changes.

If anyone else wants to work on this I'll have no trouble with accepting pull requests or adding other Collaborators (message me on github if you're interested).
