I'm happy to adopt both of these. I'll give Jari a little while to reclaim them first, not least as I'm not going to have the time to spend on packaging these for at least a week or so, but if Jari (or anyone else) doesn't claim them first, I'll send an ITA once I've checked I can get the packaging to work.
