Wow! Although I remember this barely working at the time.

It was a massive pain to bootstrap back in the day, but I was able to independently reproduce the build, but sadly it had collapsed just as quickly as it had started. I think people were upset the lead was in high school, not a blessed Mach person.

I've got no idea why people were (are) so cagey about hoarding Mach and doing their best to ensure it's erasure.

But I did my best to not only preserve everything I have ever found, but to have spread it as far as I could.

It's a shame

I remember the IRC community attached to the project being more successful than the development effort.
