I say tally ho old chap. That's probably the best course of action. Just
post the material to at least make it useful until which time you are
explicitly told by the copyright holder to remove it. The worst they can
do is ask you to remove it (cease and desist).

Might as well keep this stuff alive as long as there is a need for it and
as long as the original copyright holder has no plans for it. As long as
the original copyright holder is no longer marketing it and it's not being
sold for a profit then I don't see an ethical dilemma.
