I may or may not have the full distribution on one of my drives that survived
the storm of August, 2005. I'll look and let you know either way, but it will
take some time. I never had the source code because at the time I was pulling
my hair out setting it up, one of the programmers lived in Canada and the other
in India and no, I don't remember their names. I didn't even know the code was
available.

Then somebody must still have them. At this point in time, as I sit here now,
and to the best of my recollection, I just don't think it is me. (-:
