Hum... Chasing links from the mondo-devel mailing list lead here:

http://www.microwerks.net/~hugo/

Which looks like a perfectly good project home page to me. (Might be slightly out of date, newest 'News' is August 20th, but that's not unusual in a project like this...)

Continuing to the download link, I found that mondo-2.10.tgz was still there, but mindi-1.10.tgz returned a 404. I suspect if this isn't resolved quickly, mondo source will disappear as well.

Sad, really. If the post to mondo-devel is to be believed, it sounds as if the former FastServers.net employee is trying to extort more money out of them. I'll reserve judgement, but regardless of what his side of this story is (like how he might have been treated there, disagreements with management), if he did do what Travis said he did, he was wrong to go that far.

There's always this for those looking for the latest versions of both mondo and mindi.

Hold the presses! Dang it. I knew I should have RTFA. From Ray's side, it truly appears that it will have to be worked between attorneys. Ray's story sounds believeable, too.
