While there is a scattering of old DECUS media images on various PDP-8

DECUS<http://eisner.decus.org/> has a complete archive of all the old
DECUS software, including the PDP-8 software?

Nope.

I'm asking here because the web site doesn't say what files they offer
(if any) and they want you to agree to their TOS before you can see
what's inside the gates. I'm hoping someone here has agreed to those
terms and would be willing to let me know if it's worth agreeing to
their terms.

DECUS dropped all PDP-8 software long ago. I got a bunch of it from the in the late 80s, not long before they tossed it. I seriously doubt they kept anything. It's so long ago now that I've probably forgotten, but something in the back of my head keeps saying that they officially told that they had tossed it. But I could be wrong on that.

But DECUS didn't even keep the PDP-11 stuff around, which meant that for a while, many moons ago, when the DECUS software was available on the Internet, it was only the VMS bits. The DECUS pages was pointing at a site I was responsible for, for PDP-8 and PDP-11 stuff.
