David Beazley has also collected various historic releases here: https://github.com/dabeaz/hoppy/tree/master/Ancient -- he's got 0.9.1, 0.9.6, 0.9.7beta1, 0.9.8, 0.9.9, and 1.0.3. For me personally, the fondest memories are of 1.5.2, which Paul Everitt declared, while we were well into 2.x territory, was still the best Python ever. (I didn't agree, but 1.5.2 did serve us very well for a long time.)
