Yes, ist only the testdata, but IMHO it is copyrightable. It was my assumption that the testdata is under the json license, as everything from json.org is released under this license and the data is published in the context of the checker.

(Actually the version in sid fine enough for me) At the point of the writing I did not realize that the remedy suggested by upstream (for the license thing) is to remove the testsuite, so the new version won't be better than the current one in sid. > That is no help though given > https://github.com/KhronosGroup/glTF/issues/417 > is still open.. :/ > > Regards, > > Rene > -- tobi
