It was your org-babel post in February 2011 that brought recutils to my 
attention and I intend to experiment with recutils org-babel.

I looked through the org lisp and contrib/lisp directories and did not 
find ob-rec.el in either.  i am using Org-mode version 8.3beta 
(release_8.3beta-1140-g2eb991). I thought that it had been included.
