No worries. I see you were after these two recipes and hiredis (and the latter 
is in meta-oe now as you probably know).

The recipes that aren't either obsolete or available elsewhere are as follows:

hid-api
libstrophe
libwyliodrin
mdns
python-pyfirmata
sshpass
tempered
wyliodrin-server

Only python-pyfirmata looks particularly interesting to me, but if there are 
others that anyone would like preserved/updated please let me know.

Cheers,
Paul
