    Hi, just wondering when the powder toy became open source, and where the original source was downloaded from.

    Thanx.
    J0hn.

    Since the beginning. Original source was downloaded from unaligned.org, which I believe is down. You can get older versions of source code from the front page of this website (Wrong OS > Various > Older)

    Ohh. 'Cause I was talking to skylark on IRC ages ago, and he gave me the source, saying that it was messy and that he might release it for OS some time soon.

    I had the source on my site, jot-computing.co.uk.

    Was this the same version as what was originally made open source?

    Thanks, I've been looking for that for a while. And I don't know, sorry.

    EDIT: Skylark is on IRC right now, though I think he may be idling.
    freenode, #powder

    Your welcome, I've had it up for ages. And as far as I knew, up until recently, it was the most recent version and that it was no longer being made. But then a friend directed me here and I got back on the most recent version.

    And ye, ive seen him on a few channels idling, haven't talked to him in AGES.
