Are there any plans to get these tests included under the tests/distaf/...
path in the sources? That would allow us to run them nightly, weekly or

Alternatively we can setup a dedicated Jenkins job in the CentOS CI too.
The plan is to have DiSTAF run regularly there, so getting the tests
included in the standard repo would be the most practical.

Thanks,
