What was the reason not to release the test suite? Copyright?

Because Walter has claimed frequently that the submitted patches are not
well tested. It would be a huge help for people contributing patches to
have the "official" test suite to be sure their patches would be accepted.

And you know what? Even if you want, you can't (without Walter permission,
of course)...

Then people ask why it's important that DMD is *really* free/libre.
