Finally, in case the lack of constraints on dependencies put anyone off,
please note that all deps in all three projects now have minimum and
maximum bounds.

Also, I should take this chance to note that there were no cache controls
in the homepages linked above, so please force reloads in your browser to
see latest versions. (The pages /now/ have caching prevention so this
should not be necessary again.)

And, it's nice to share your thoughts, don't you think?
