Do the ones from chez-vrolet.net and mail-archive.com, linked to in the
part of the FAQ excerpt which you didn't quote, not qualify?

(I haven't looked at them myself, I'm relying on the word of others. I'm
also on-shift right now, so I can't in good conscience rectify that just
at the moment.)

My first reflex is to suggest checking it in the Wayback Machine, which
IIRC is also suggested in other parts of the FAQ (for other locations,
not that one in particular). I don't know whether the results would be
worth it, however, nor whether you may have already done so.
