The site is working for me even now. Unfortunately, the site hasn't really been updated much over the past couple of years and when I e-mailed some people on the Programatica project about the status of House & Osker I never got anything back. The biggest obstacle you may find when trying to set up House & hOp is that hOp is based upon a modified version of a very old GHC and from the last time I looked at it the GHC runtime has changed enough that making a new hOp will be non-trivial.
Indeed! House 0.8, as listed on the official programatica page, is based on GHC 6.2...not so fun to work with these days. I've spent the last year or so working on House as part of my research, and have updated it to GHC 6.8.2 (with a lot of help). You can get a copy of my unofficial "House 0.8.91" sources here: http://web.cecs.pdx.edu/~kennyg/house/ It's still a bit of a challenge to build. Notably, you'll need a 32-bit Linux system - it doesn't build on 64-bit linux nor Mac OS X (yet). If you just want a floppy image, you may as well stick with House 0.8 from http://programatica.cs.pdx.edu/House/ ... it's basically the same. --Kenny
