Can these test fixtures already be contributed to Frank's test suite?

I'm a strong proponent for adding PMID and PMCID variables to CSL 1.0.1.

There is interest for an Objective C citeproc:

Do we still have (L)GPL styles? I really think we should get rid of that
type of license in the style repo.

Can you supply us with an overview of these adjustments? I might fix up a
few styles upstream if I agree with the changes.

As I indicated in the other thread, just make sure that the style you
commit are valid CSL 1.0. If you start with a few, Sebastian and I will
review them and let you know if there's anything we would like to see
different.
Thanks for the update, Charles, it's much appreciated.
