Last update: EvoTerm referred me to Iris Hensel (Oxtoby's wife?), but she's not replying to emails. The only option now is Unilex, which offers both online access and a download version.

I've been in contact with Hans from Acolada, and he has been in contact with Graham's wife, but I haven't heard back from him for a wile, and have a feeling things got stuck somewhere. I really hope they manage to sort something out because it would be a real shame if the entire database would merely remain in limbo forever, as it is now. In any event, I too got myself the download version, which I am happily using the time being. I also got myself "Lexicon Financieel Management" (EnglishDutch)(see: http://www.acolada.de/xist4c/web/Lexicon-Financieel-Management--English-Dutch--Download_id_4583__dId_31060_.htm ), which is pretty good, although it doesn't really compare to Aart van den End's amazing JurLex/OGL.

I just sent another email to Hans, asking him if any progress has been made, and for Graham's wife's contact details. Will report back here if I hear anything.
