I agree that including the Raster Test Data from unknown sources in the
distribution file is improper. Maybe we can come up with alternate test
data from known sources to replace the files in question....

Greg,

I have reviewed the document (it's long!) and I don't see any problems.

Working out the license/terms of the unit test data files may be
difficult.
I can speak for a bunch of the raster files (many from USGS, DOD and
PCI GeoTIFF samples), but not all of course.

I will say I'm somewhat uncomfortable with having data of hard to
track sources in the source tarballs.

Best regards,
