Karen, would it still be acceptable to have more up-to-date JSON Schema

what is in the CPAN release?

No, that can produce failures that authors of dependent packages cannot
anticipate or mitigate. If the github HEAD was always acceptable to be used
in tests, I would have written the Test::JSON::Schema::Acceptance module so
it always pulled down the latest data from git when running tests, rather than
packaging the data into share/.

Also, sometimes the format of the data changes, requiring changes to the wrapper
code in the Test::JSON::Schema::Acceptance module.
