[xml] Copyright infringment in libxml2 source tarballs



Hi,

I got this bug report on the Debian BTS.

  libxml2 testsuite includes several testfiles that are unclear if they
  are DFSG free. These seem to downloaded from various websites, without
  being aware that typically websited do not allow redistributing their
  content without permissions.
  
  Atleast the following files were spotted to be probably nonfree material
  
  test/HTML/fp40.htm   - Microsoft Frontpage readme file
  test/HTML/wired.html - Wired.com frontpage
  test/HTML/test2.html - Old linuxtoday.com page
  test/slashdot.rdf    - slashdot rss feed
  test/slashdot.xml    - slashdot rss feed
  test/slashdot16.xml  - slashdot rss feed
  test/wap.xml         - <!-- (C) 1999, 2000 WAP Forum Ltd.  All rights

While it is an obvious issue for Debian, it is also one for libxml2
upstream, that I think you should do something about.

Mike
