If you go to one of the sites listed on www.sdcorp.com for WP7, you can find the pre-release of WP8, dated August 1998 ftp ftp.turbolinux.com /pub/linux/corelwp/wp8prelease/ (and read the README in that directory: you can either get a 38MB tar.gz file, or several files less than 5MB each. Also note what it says about unpacking the file[s]). The directory /pub/linux/corelwp/ itself contains the files for WP7. Hope this helpes someone!
