I see that some of "the community" have now uploaded dozens of the
installers from the old Livecode page to archive.org.

https://archive.org/search.php?query=creator%3A%22LiveCode%2C+Inc.%22

I don't know what LC Ltd's thinking was in deleting the old pages, but
clearly some of "the community" are doing all they can to thwart LC Ltd.
The tragedy of the commons.
