AFAIK, the test data (at least part of it) is used by the JUnit tests.
If that is the case I think the test data should remain with the sources
since JUnit tests are part of the sources.

I assume that people will download the sources to compile the CDK - if
that is the case, a compile should be followed by the tests.

In addition, if a person downloads the sources without the test data,
then it is possible that future commits will not be fully tested, which
is not good
