Last year I started reaching out, through LinkedIn, to people who worked for, or even owned, some of the companies from the 80s and early 90s that produced accelerators and other addons.
My shot in the dark paid off, Lincoln Henthorn, one of the executives from NewLife lent me his box of old manuals, disks, and even accelerators to scan, copy and photograph.
I've posted my initial scans, the manuals, and the last released driver disks to my site:

Note: some of these manuals and drivers may work with Novy boards. For example the Novy Quik30Plus appears to be nearly identical to the NewLife 25. I've sent a note to Lincoln asking if he has any information on the relationship between NewLife and Novy.
I've also shared with @Bolle the source code and CAD drawings that I found on the disks.
