Hi Sam,

This sounds useful. Submitting it as an individual Internet-Draft 
(draft-whited-precis-test-vectors-00) is the best first step. That 
enables the working group to determine if the document is suitable for 
adoption as a working group item. I'd be happy to help you in your work 
on this document.

Peter
