Oh that's no problem: they were still being published by the API. Perils of having two systems where there should be just one. We plan to fix that (hopefully this year) by making a new API that will also be much more usable.

Yeah I was tracking that via the API. It's interesting how close #2 and #3 were along the way. Neck and neck for hours.
