Hi Kacper,
thanks for your bug report. I'll admit that the removal of all those
programs has been a test to see if those programs are still in use. As
long as I don't actually switch "upstream", I can revert all those
removals quite easily.
So apparently, at least two programs are missed if I remove them. I've
re-added quiz now as well, it'll get uploaded shortly.
Regards,
Tobias
