The InfoTaskForce interpreter was one of the earliest 3rd party z machines. That dates to 1987 and was originally developed on the Macintosh but was ported to DOS, Unix, Amiga, Atari, ... Zip (Mark Howell) was also highly influential and ported everywhere. The only definitive date I can find is for it is version 2 (late 1993) but there are usenet references to it in 1992. Frotz was a re-write of zip and dates to 1995 or so.
