Most of the zips don't have a readme in them, and one file that does doesn't address the issue of distribution.  So from what I understand is if it isn't addressed, it means an automatic no.

So no way either to determine the creator either then.  

I had hoped a solution would be to get the files hosted by one of the (still operating) sites that has permission.
