On Stack Overflow a commenter writes (beneath an answer from Paul):


"It is my humble opinion that LRSTAR is/was extremely good. Paul Mann spent
years getting this right; he then offered it open source following the
industry mantra of "give it away and make money on services". Turns out he
effectively starved; a recent conversation with him indicated he had turned
his attention to another field that provide him with an actual reward. His
last apparent technical act was to remove all the public instances of LRSTAR.
May we all live with YACC forever."
