You are right, I won't send any further details. The general issue of
(self) plagiarism might be interesting to the list, but the specific case
of these papers is definitely off-topic. Some people offered their help
in downloading the papers, I will reply them in private.
(However I would emphasize again that the details I wrote were not about
the manuscript I received for review, but about 7 other papers that are
already published.)
