My understanding is that SGI has (internally) gone through all the
necessary procedures to release this code under the GPL once a suitable
gatekeeper has volunteered and on the understanding that SGI will
provide no support for this code base (the products that were built
around these particular PMDAs are long since moribund).

In practical terms that probably means once we get organized on the
outside, this is gated by Mark Goodwin's bandwidth to organize the
package from the inside.
