For those who may be wondering what became of the erstwhile Free & Open Source LiveCode Community Edition (LCCE), check out OpenXTalk:

https://openxtalk.org/

and Forum:

https://www.openxtalk.org/forum/

and Downloads:

https://openxtalk.org/OXTDownloads.html

Some of the download links are for RCs of the OpenXTalk DON'T PANIC! Edition (DPE) IDE , which is a fork of LCCE

GitHub of OXT DPE:

https://github.com/OpenXTalk-org/OpenXtalk-IDE-DontPanicEdit...

Other download links are to another fork, OpenXTalk Lite Edition (OXT Lite), which seems to have recently been rebranded to "tIDE."

tIDE Homepage:

EDIT: LiveCode, not Live Code.

Thoughts on the rebranding of tIDE? I'm sorry I missed it as "OXT Lite", but worry about it being presented Athena-like as born fully-formed from a single developer...

Thank you for this. It lives! I will try these forks out. Don't you just love open source!
