At least you can see that  Dan is still working on a language project:

https://www.oracle.com/openworld/on-demand.html?bcid=6092429580001

(Fast forward to the demo part.  The actual language is blurred but you can
imagine how it'd look.)

As for Frank, we don't necessarily hide it.  A zip file is here:
http://tinlizzie.org/~ohshima/Frank-170908.zi
<http://tinlizzie.org/~ohshima/Frank-170908.ziz>p and this repo is still
visible: http://tinlizzie.org/updates/exploratory/packages/

Sorry for not forthcoming to promote this... It's just not a in a good
shape.
