I don't as well, but I am not aware of any non-deliveries material lingering around in repositories. As outlined in my email below, I encourage everyone to use the wikis (or for staff: date spaces or random directories on the W3C server) for things that should not be on the WAI website (the scripts are not) but still have relevancy. Again, I apologize for not clearly communicating this before.
