Request for help: "exotic" QTVRs for testing VLC Media Player's new capabilities

Hi list
Apology for dropping into the middle of an event with this small request. Time is of essence (pun intended).
Le?n Moctezuma is a Google Summer of Code student. He is implementing support for QTVR into VLC Media Player (and also control via Wiimote).
He needs samples of QTVRs that are encoded with H.264, Sorensen, and whatever other exotic existing encodings. The WWP is to my knowledge the largest and most varied collection of QTVRs. Can you help pointing him to such QTVRs? He needs test cases to move forward on his project that will end mid August.
QTVR Playback in VLC Media Player will extend the life of QTVR content beyond the obsolence of other players. The Open Source code will ensure that as long as there is interest there will be support. I believe this to be of interest for all QTVR producers and hope you understand my interruption.
Le?n's original call for help: <http://groups.google.com/group/hugin-ptx/browse_thread/thread/874d07e940...>
You can contact him directly or I can help relay the link to the relevant WWP entries.
Happy shooting/stitching/debugging.
