I've been looking for this version cause it's the last that works with sgi java jdk 3.1.1 or newer but i haven't found anything yet ...
if it's right i would ask someone who has it to share it ... and maybe "plant" it on the nekochan ftp ... with many thanks from me and probably others

maybe "dc_v01" user in the post above can share the 2.3.1 version of CosmoCode
The are numerous articles on the net that states ... the CosmoCode from sgi was one of the most powerful java development software ever written ...
Later a group took the software into custody but beside the 2.5 windows version nothing is to be found out there
it's getting more and more difficult to find old pages on the search machines these day's ... but not impossible ... thanks for that
I also tried lately the bxpro software, the 30 days trial with an extended month thanks to th ics guys and i was wondering if someone knows what is the differences from 1.2 version to the 1.2.1 ot the sgi rapidapp package version cause the doc database on sgi have manuals only for those versions ...
I think that the 6.2 bxpro evaluation version for irix is just up on ics.com ... i used 6.1.4 version ... and i'm impressed ... till the price ...
...
thank you
I updated the link to the webarchive site
It very clearly stated ... "free license"
So the 2.3.1 version was given for free ... with a free license ...
This is also the last version ...
The procedure was like that ... subscribe for free on the silicon surf account and then simply download the package and the free license
It can also be seen that the cosmo create 1.0.3, cosmo worlds 1.0.3 and cosmo player 2.1.5 were too free at that time so i guess the whole package cosmosuite the last 1.0.3 was given free ...
After that .. we're talking 2004 ... they remove a lot of softwares from their site .. and cosmo was one of them ...
The specific 1.0.3 suite however is free .. and it will remain that way cause sgi had all ownership privilege at that time ...
I understand that people are somehow reluctant to proprietary software .. but this was and is free software .. and more .. abandoned ... so it's safe
To be crystal clear .. here it is what sgi themselves said about free license software .. and the link too :
