Strange, as I have mentioned and announced that tool and URL several
times through this list and plenty of people seem to "know" it already.
But nice to see that we can still reach even more people.

The code is available at Github [1] but I can leave it running on my
site. The result of the processing is currently static HTML files which
can be uploaded anywhere, so a web-space for static HTML would be enough
to host this.

I have tried to make this available on some other "official" typo3.org
site before, but I think there was a lack of a proper "URL" for these
kind of "tools". It's not a matter of getting a "typo3.org" URL, because
it might as well be as unknown as the current one.

Any suggestion?

Cheers,
Ernesto
