The newest (at least newer) version seems to be http://speleotrove.com/decimal/
Top of page says:
Welcome to the General Decimal Arithmetic website, which is now hosted
at speleotrove.com. The page and file names here have not been changed
from the names used on the previous website, www2.hursley.ibm.com.

File to download is dectest.zip
All files are now CRLF
More significantly the versions are bumped up from 2.59 in the python
repo to 2.62 at this link
Needless to say there are much larger differences between these than
just CRLF :-)
