Previous versions were not under the GPL, but the original author released 0.6.3 under the GPL. Source for all previous versions were always available, and still are on the wayback machine of the original homepage. Essentially pre 0.6.3 is just source available. Dist file mirroring is okay right? Besides the wayback machine there is exactly one place I can find 0.6.2, and it’s on a gnome related mirror and in zip format. Right now I have the port’s master site set to my own with a .tar.gz of the source.
