hi,

one “send it privately” event does not an ethos make. 

i am speaking for Davide here, but i do not think he feels the it was worth publishing widely, being a throw away script.

 i am going to spend some time and try and beautify it, if i succeed i will post my version.

if in the meantime, you are desperate for a copy you could contact him directly and he may well send you a copy.

none of us are required to publish everything we write.
