I have never been able to locate any other origin of the housh shell

souce I know of.

As the system comes up, the component builders will from time to time
appear, bearing hot new versions of their pieces -- faster, smaller,
more complete, or putatively less buggy. The replacement of a working
component by a new version requires the same systematic testing pro-
cedure that adding a new component does, although it should require
less time, for more complete and efficient test cases will usually be
available. - Frederick Brooks Jr., "The Mythical Man Month"
