Last I heard dgk and gsf are at google now.  The AT&T Research organization has 
gone through a lot of org changes lately so the subject of a permanent home for 
AST may need to be revisited. 

FYI, http://www2.research.att.com/~astopen/download/ is still up. Or at least 
it’s available from inside AT&T. It may be a firewall issue keeping others out. 
What was the git url? I’ll see if it is visible internally as well.
