Hi Stuart,
I hate replying to an ancient threat, but I figured it was the best
method. Thanks for the tips. The original paper was almost as hard to
find as he is proving to be. :)
All the best,
-Jason C. McDonald

Wow, is this a reply to a nearly seven-year-old email? [1]
I don't know if Vladimir Yaroslavskiy is still on core-libs-dev. I dug
through tthe archives and found that he had posted a couple messages
somewhat later [2] [3] using different email addresses:
Vladimir Iaroslavski <vladimir.iaroslav...@googlemail.com>
Vladimir Iaroslavski <iaroslav...@mail.ru>
You might try to contact him at one of these addresses. Note however
that the more recent one is still over five years old.
He's also on LinkedIn. His profile says he works for Oracle, but as
far as I can see he no longer does.
Good luck,
s'marks

The link to Vladimir Yaroslavskiy's original whitepaper describing the
algorithm and its proofs was, unfortunately, broken. Using Archive.org's
Wayback Machine, I was able to get the last known revision. I
reformatted
the document in LibreOffice for ease of reading, and fixed some minor
grammatical errors.
I also implemented the algorithm in an open-source (MIT License) C++
library, which I hope to release in the coming few months.
In order to make this algorithm and its proofs more easily accessible, I
would like to make the revised whitepaper publicly and freely
available from
my own web servers, but I wanted to check with the original author(s)
first.
Furthermore, I wanted to find out if there have been any revisions
since the
22 September 2009 version of the whitepaper I acquired.
Thank you in advance!
