Actually, I only have Temp17, and I was preparing it in my personal space
(so far provided links to several users), but on one occasion a couple of
months ago I posted it in this mailing list. It there is any interest, I
will obviously move it to the general meta namespace.

I did not yet check the comments, will do now.
