Is Martin Nilsson active on this list?

 From http://www.id3.org/develop.html:
-------------------------------------

Example tags
A comprehensive test suite for all versions of ID3 tags are currently under
development. The test suite includes both conforming tags and non-conforming
tags so that both standards coformance and software robustness can be
tested. Part of these will be released as example tags while the rest will
be sold to cover development and running expenses. If you are interested,
contact Martin Nilsson.

While waiting for the ID3v2 test suite, feel free to try the ID3v1/ID3v1.1
test suite.

--------------------------------------

That seems to imply to me that people have been waiting for example tags
since v1.
