I had reached out to Udi Manber in 2014, with the help of a few others we
helped persuade University of Arizona of an ISC release.

Its vaguely mentioned there. That's as good as it gets...

Sadly the original release didn't compile, I reported the issue in hopes it would
be fixed. Nothing has happened since and I got tired of waiting so I forked
and fixed it myself. I sent a pull request but I don't think its been merged
yet.
