You could always email Ken Senior at NRL and ask him.

A bit of browsing around shows that NRL has somewhat reorganized since
the CANVAS paper was published in 2005 (there's no Space Applications
Branch any more, for instance), and the "download open source software"
function may have been centralized in some sort of "US government" portal.
The distribution mechanism moves around at JPL and NASA, I see no reason
why it wouldn't also occur at NRL - and in none of these cases is it
trivial to find. For some reason, they set up websites and assume people
will know that's the URL by magic, since it doesn't always get indexed
by Google.
for instance https://code.nasa.gov/ purports to be a repository of NASA
open source software, but there's plenty of other places to go look.
