Well, without the complete source code this would not be simple to carry on.

Still, worst case, maybe we can pull a Blender ?

Eq. the community could buy the (otherwise useless) source code from the creditors like the Blender project did.

They might be more willing to cooperate than existing companies that just kept hold to it forever for no good reason (like what happened with source code for the Fremantle and Harmattan closed components).

EDIT:
Looks like romu beat me with the Blender idea.
