Nota bene: This project is entirely unsupported. I have not been able to get it to work, so creating an issue asking for guidance would be futile. If you have files to contribute, or build instructions / documentation that others might find useful, awesome! Please submit a PR here.

The canonical site, http://svn.ask.it.usyd.edu.au/trac/candc, is totally down.

Luckily, the Wayback Machine has archived most of that site:

Unfortunately, James Curran put all the downloads behind a registration wall, so the Wayback Machine doesn’t have any records of those.

Fortunately, by the time I got around to creating this repository, Stephen Clark still hosted a copy of the downloads on his Cambridge website, http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~sc609/candc-1.00.html (latest capture on the Wayback Machine). The files available there were the 1.00 version, so not the latest version of everything, but better than nothing!

~That site and files are currently still live and accessible, but~ because I knew that would happen, I downloaded and added them to this repository. The following section is taken verbatim from Stephen Clark’s “C&C Parser Downloads” page.

I have no idea. Creative Commons should come up with something for abandonware.

Other resurrections

An Inria researcher runs a live demo server at http://valeriobasile.github.io/candcapi/

To repeat the needlessly heteronormative example from that page (the patriarchy is strong with this one):

curl -d 'Every man loves a woman' 'http://gingerbeard.alwaysdata.net/candcapi/proxy.php/raw/pipeline?semantics=fol'

fol(1,not(some(A,and(n1man(A),not(some(B,some(C,and(r1patient(B,C),and(r1agent(B,A),and(v1love(B),n1woman(C))))))))))).
