The ftp server at ooopackages.good-day.net appears to be having
intermittent problems -- it was not working properly for a while, then
it was working for a few days, and at the moment it appears to be not
working again.
I was able to download the source from there yesterday or the day
before -- it does build nicely (though it takes an astonishly long
time -- I guess that's well known).
There are other locations to get the source code -- the name of the
file is different, but the contents appear to be the same. However (as
of a couple of days ago) I could only find m104 elsewhere, not m105.
