[mb] Okay -- what happens when tests are submitted with a copyright?  Or,
do we not accept them unless we have free access to modify them?  I am
particularly concerned about a test that is submitted, accepted, and then
someone later believes that there is a problem with the test -- modifies it,
and resubmits it -- are we set up to track modifications?
