Ask HN: Does someone have pyvm-3.0.tar.bz2
I'm trying to have buildable versions of several compilers for learning and historical preservation and recently discovered "lwc" https://directory.fsf.org/wiki/Lightweight_C++ and apparently the latest version of it come with this pyvm version http://students.ceid.upatras.gr/~sxanth/pyvm-3.0/ -> http://students.ceid.upatras.gr/~sxanth/pyvm-3.0/pyvm-3.0.tar.bz2 but is not accessible anymore.
Does anyone have it and could share it ?
I already have a version 2.1 here https://github.com/mingodad/lwc and here https://github.com/mingodad/pyvm and here is some discussion with links https://github.com/mingodad/cfront-3/issues/6 .
I also have:
- Cfront3 https://github.com/mingodad/cfront-3
- Cyclone https://github.com/mingodad/cyclone
- Tinycc reeentrant https://github.com/mingodad/tinycc
Thank you in advance for any help !

My favourite Git commit (2019)
Not completely on topic (if you read TFA) but my favorite Git commit is by compiler badass and HN frequenter, where he checks in an entire C compiler to the D language repo:

The C Bounded Model Checker: Criminally Underused
A new generated code alone is 4000 lines long [1]. The actual code added is just 2000 lines, and some are used to pay debts, I mean, to make a proper code generator (which can be alternatively written in a simpler scripting langauge). In any case it is never comparable to the entier C parser proper.

OpenD, a D language fork that is open to your contributions
D is completely opensource already (https://github.com/dlang/dmd). The "open" of OpenD is just ADR saying that OpenD will be more open to new language features than D has historically been.

The OpenD Programming Language (fork of D)
The reference compiler, DMD, is open source: https://github.com/dlang/dmd
But they don't accept just any Pull Request or features the community submits, understandably. There's a process called DIP for language improvements: https://github.com/dlang/DIPs/blob/master/DIPs/README.md
However, by some accounts, it's really hard to get anything through.
Given D already has so many feature, I find that to be a good thing , to be honest, by not everyone agrees, of course.
