What is developer.apple.com FTP Archive (a.k.a. ftp.apple.com/developer) (2008-02-01 archive)?

Archived partial copy of files that were available on the ftp server at developer.apple.com, this contains SDK, developer tools and sample code files for developing for PowerPC classic Mac OS as well as very early versions of Mac OS X.  Archive #2 is what looks like all files dated before february 2008).

The archives themselves are extensive with around 138,000 items in the first one and 6000 in the second one, the downloads are ISO files which can be mounted, burned to DVD-DL or cloned to an USB stick.

You can search an index of the files included in the ISO images by downloading the Developer Archive Index files (which can be opened with Disk Tracker 2.x or later), before you decide to download one of the full ISO images which are pretty large.

Please let us know in chat if some of the files in those ISO should be made in a separate software page on here and feel free to do that if you have the time and knowledge to describe them.
