There is a newer web page http://lie.math.brocku.ca/gotools/ with links to some recent publications for checking solutions of life and death problems and a link to http://lie.math.brocku.ca/gotools/applet.html which is a Java based online service. A standalone Java interface was developed on and off and will hopefully be ready in the next months.
