There are internally, although I don't know if they were made
publically available or not. I believe there would be high value
in making them publically available though for some external
final testing, but I'm not sure what the official plan is.

(This feels odd replying on bottom to a mail that was replied on
top. Probably looks very confusing to people reading it too.
Ah well, I refuse to reply on top, which is broken, so I'm sure
people will deal with it, or start a "Why reply on top is
considered harmful" flamewar or something. <grin>)
