Do public morgue file collections exist?

First thing first, hello everyone :)

Didn't play roguelikes in a while, and even when I went for a bit of NetHack/Angband didn't get too far.
Accidentally found DCSS, this is the first game in the genre that got me really hooked.

On to the topic at hand:
I started out with the ssh client then found the browser based tiles one.
Now I prefer the standalone tiles version, has some nice features and is much more
responsive/isn't prone to outages like the one that happened yesterday.

One thing missing from it is ghosts of other players, though. I don't mind getting butchered by them
every now and then, they add nice variety to the gameplay. Didn't find any place where I could download
say 10000 archived ghosts of previous players to spice up my solo games.
If anyone could point me to such a place or just has some morguefiles at hand I'd be a happy camper.

Ghosts come from bones files, not morgue files.

Thought they were both just synonyms for NetHack's bone files, that explains the lack of results :)
Exactly what I was looking for, thanks.

Edit:
Tried the tool, ran with no errors but it updated nothing :(
The original question still stands, I don't mind having to do the placement/merging/whatever manually, just need the data.

Does the tool still need to run twice to update?

Yes, according to the readme first run uploads your files, subsequent ones only replace the newer bones files with a random ghost from the server.

Now it works, seems like there was just a temporary problem.
Already downloaded some manually so I'm more or less set :)
