If I remember correctly, getting the latest version of Mozart 1.* (version 1.4.0) should not be a problem, but the Mozart server (http://mozart-oz.org/) seems to be currently down. The sources etc. are also at Github (https://github.com/mozart/mozart), but I did not try installing from there. If you find the binary installer, there was a few years ago some minor error in a shell script that caused startup, but If you run into that I can help.

Once you have plan Mozart 1.4 running I can help you there by sending you the necessary files that ozmake would install and instructions where to put them.

If not, then there might be a better alternative: using the PWGL (http://www2.siba.fi/pwgl/) libraries Cluster Engine (http://sandred.com/PRISMA/PRISMA.html) and Cluster Rules (http://github.com/tanders/cluster-rules). The latter defines a set of rules/constraints for Cluster Engine. While this platform is not quite as expressive as Strasheela, it is far more easy to use.

Both libraries come with a tutorial available within the standard PWGL help system.
