Hi Hannes, I think Gavin Hesketh (identified as the author of this
plugin at e.g. https://rivet.hepforge.org/analyses#ATLAS_2014_I1306294)
is on the Rivet list, but I've CC'd him explicitly. Typically analysis
authors will know more details than the Rivet authors do... but I hope
that the analyses *have* all been written so that MC tuns can be
compared directly to the data... that's the point!

To me it looks like all versions are available... no?

Hurrah! ;-)
