Not having much luck contacting Oris. His domain exists
but is only "parked" (I get a generic "under construction"
page from a domain registration service). Email to his first
name at that domain bounces with a "does not like recipient"
reply.
I've shotgunned a couple of other addresses and if I make
contact I'll let you know but, at this point, I'm not really
expecting to get through.
Regardless, thanks for the pointer. Maybe he will turn
up somewhere else.
