​Agreed and maybe he is under a lot of work. My question here is if he ever
got back, were there further outreach? And is it possible to share the
admin credentials with an AOO contributor like Andrew P. I heard he already
did an rsync of the site but was too large to hold on his client. Maybe AOO
could share a space to rsync there as a read-only. And then perform some
cleanup to tag spam posts and delete the pages. 100G should do it IMO.
