I remember seeing a demo of PDB at the British Telecom Software Engineering Centre at Glasgow running on a Sun workstation around 1993.

I contacted Arthur van Hoff (who went on to Java fame) a few years ago and he put me in touch with Tim Niblett who still has some source code, but if I recall correctly, didn't feel that he had the authority to release it.

I believe that PDB came out of the Turing Institute https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turing_Institute which sadly closed in 1994.

It would be great to resurrect it, but we only seem to have the binaries.
