A new tuning?

Hey,

Has anyone had any experience with using and or studying this tuning below?
Is it new...is it documented anywhere?

I derived it as an analogue to Margo Schulter's 17-note scale from her current
JI-network article "JOT 17: A just thirdtone system for neomedieval music".

0: 1/1 0.000 unison, perfect prime
1: 16/15 111.731 minor diatonic semitone
2: 17/15 216.687
3: 6/5 315.641 minor third
4: 19/15 409.244 undevicesimal ditone
5: 4/3 498.045 perfect fourth
6: 17/12 603.000 2nd septendecimal tritone
7: 3/2 701.955 perfect fifth
8: 8/5 813.686 minor sixth
9: 17/10 918.642 septendecimal diminished seventh
10: 9/5 1017.596 just minor seventh, BP seventh
11: 19/10 1111.199 undevicesimal major seventh
12: 2/1 1200.000 octave

It seems it is known.

I edited it into a Scala scl file as follows:

! aaron.scl
Aaron Johnson scale
12
!
16/15 ! 111.731 minor diatonic
17/15 ! 216.687
6/5 ! 315.641 minor third
19/15 ! 409.244 undevicesimal ditone
4/3 ! 498.045 perfect fourth
17/12 ! 603.000 2nd septendecimal tritone
3/2 ! 701.955 perfect fifth
8/5 ! 813.686 minor sixth
17/10 ! 918.642 septendecimal diminished seventh
9/5 ! 1017.596 just minor seventh, BP seventh
19/10 ! 1111.199 undevicesimal major seventh
2/1 ! 1200.000 octave

Scala then told me it is the inversion of "Sylvestro Ganassi's
temperament (1543)", ganassi.scl, and is a mode of something called
malcolm2.scl, no further information, and also super_12.scl, claimed
to be "Most equal superparticular 12-tone
scale."
