My fear comes from the fact that in these matters, bad advice is worse
than no advice... As I said, the issues are pretty complex, and it's
hard to get a firm answer as soon as you deal with legalese. From what I
can see, as of today, the preferred license for publishing a test suite
is the Document license ; the topics of contributions, copyright
holding, patent infringements would be good to cover as well.

I'll try to coordinate with the person in charge tomorrow...
