repo](https://web.archive.org/web/20210101211346/https://www.ioccc.org/) on
[GitHub](https://github.com). From this point on, the [official IOCCC web
site](https://www.ioccc.org) became a [GitHub Pages](https://pages.github.com)
web site.
#### 2020 Dec 28 bzip2 compressed tarball archive
Furthermore, a bzip2 compressed tarball containing the released
IOCCC winner source code may be found under the [archive/](/archive) directory.
