This is clearly extremely valuable. But it also (once again)
shows the limitation of the current Internet-Draft format.

Are the inputs of this test suite available as actual UTF-8,
e.g. as one input per line, or one input line followed by
one output line? I don't want to write a C program and
run the C compiler and execute a program just to be able
to use the data for my purposes.

Regards,    Martin.
