> Luckily, I found https://legacy.python.org/download/releases/src/ https://legacy.python.org/download/releases/src/, which includes source releases as far back as Python 1.0.1, which was released just over 25 years ago on February 15th, 1994. There's also Python 0.9.1, which I extracted from alt.sources. It's available from https://www.python.org/download/releases/early/ https://www.python.org/download/releases/early/ . I had to patch it a bit to compile. It works, but last time I tried it it segfaulted on exit. FWIW, the Python repository goes back to the original commit, so it's also possible to extract a snapshot from any date.
