Hi,

as IOhannes pointed out, all externals from Pd extended are mirrored on 
https://git.puredata.info/.

Note that most of those mirrors contain the original code and are not 
actively maintained.

Some people actually took over maintainance of individual Pd externals 
on GitHub, e.g. https://github.com/electrickery

In some cases, the original author has the code on GitHub, e.g. 
https://github.com/MetaluNet/moonlib
