i thought he put it on archive.org when he quit. I got it from there I think (or somewhere else, but i do have a copy of the os2bbs archive)
I can understand wanting people to get it from them after the work they put in curating such an archive (which i imagine is more work than mounting a few nightowl cds and copying the contents over), but I also think if you're not going to maintain it any more then it would be nice to make it available so someone can take over. they don't owe anyone though.
