Does anybody know where I can find an IPA to <Internet> legend?

I have found three proposals on the Web:

Computer-coding the IPA: a proposed extension of SAMPA:
    http://www.phon.ucl.ac.uk/home/sampa/x-sampa.htm
(John Wells, Department of Phonetics and Linguistics, University College
London)

Proposal for an ASCII Version of the IPA
    http://weber.u.washington.edu/~yuenren/ASCII_IPA.html
(David Prager Branner)

Usenet IPA/ASCII transcription
    http://weber.u.washington.edu/~dillon/ipaascii.html
(Evan Kirshenbaum)


The Usenet system may be in use in the newsgroups sci.lang and
alt.usage.english (since around 1/93). I do not know if the other two are
actually in use.
