Re: Micropub test suite

I would agree with Sandro, it wasn't ever agreed on to drop requirements
for test suites.
I just sort of assumed we were okay without it since there were a good
number of implementation reports from outside the group and honestly I
don't know there is much to test on the client sides unless you start to
dictate what vocabularies a client is submitting.
I guess just a minimal testing that they can submit "some things" and its
formatted correctly.  Not really sure how that would work.
