Downloads are still available on sourceforge, but the wiki, CVS, and
mailing lists are down. Good news is that a Starkit is now available
for download thanks to Brett Schwarz and much thanks to L. J. Bayuk for
his pgin.tcl code.

The latest release was 0.98.8.20030520, available as a Starkit at:

http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/pgaccess/pgaccess.kit?download

Running the Starkit on OSX won't work, but for Linux and Win it should
make installation much easier. You will need to first install Tclkit
for your platform, followed by the Starkit.

For more on Starkits, including an always fresh pgaccess.kit file, check
the Starkit Distribution Archive:

The releases are also published on freshmeat, you can subscribe to the
list of new release notifications there as well.
