Four 270-equal ciculating temperaments

Since there seems to be some interest in this, I give them below. The
best fifth of 270 is slightly sharp so these are temperaments
ordinare, but there's nothing wrong with that. Scala compares well270a
to vallotti and janke5 and well270b to aron-neidhardt. Well270c is not
very close to either Graham's breedt1 or my well270d or ratwell, and
well270d is not that close to well270c or stanhope. Since 270 is a
strong 13-limit system, it would make sense to detemper to the 13
limit if someone wanted a pseudo-JI version.
