Bitsavers' Archive

Via Dusty Decks we find bitsavers.org which contains scanned copies of manuals as well as historic source code and software.

Some of the manuals are for programming languages like Algol and Fortran, of course.

Seems like a good site to bookmark.

Erlang REPOS 1.0

REPOS stands for Repository of Erlang-Projects.Org Software selection. It is a collection of major ready-to-work Erlang software. REPOS is distributed as a CDROM image (ISO). You can use every software included in the REPOS environment either directly from CDROM from your hard-drive or from a USB key.

Seems like a nice distribution technique for non-mainstream languages.

The distribution includes several software packages along with erlang, among them Xmerl, Yaws and Wings 3D.
