upstream confirmed that the file is indeed DFSG-free. Thank you for bringing it
up!

Thanks for making sure that this is the only file!

Now we need to decide whether vcmi or homm3-en-data should drop the map.

I'd offer to drop it in vcmi just by adding VCMI_Tests_2011b.h3m to
Files-Excluded in d/copyright. The file is not needed at all to run vcmi, so
there is no problem with excluding it from the source package.

What do you think?

Thanks!

cheers, josch
