   Until recently it was under AGPL. It was open sourced in 2022, and now siemens bought altair (the company who developed it for many years) and closed it again. Some of us cared and contributed, and now it’s gone… Maybe this can continue under another name using the last source release?

      Yes, it can. Do you have a copy?

      1. hdrz · 1790892389 · focus · HN ↗

         Probably, but not the last one, maybe from few months ago

            That's better than luban-2022's copy I linked above, which is from 02024.

            Unclear, maybe, but see <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=49928579">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=49928579.

      Looks like they&#x27;ve made <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;OpenRadioss&#x2F;OpenRadioss" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;OpenRadioss&#x2F;OpenRadioss private to make that harder to do. But hopefully someone out there has a recent clone of the repo.

         If you know when it was deleted, you should be able to find the last-pushed hashes in <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.gharchive.org&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.gharchive.org&#x2F;, and then can likely still fetch those hashes via any surviving fork - even if it doesn&#x27;t look up-to-date (since github commingles the actual pack storage underneath forks).
