AFAIK Tom Bradford owned the xmldb.org domain. He did not respond to any of my enquiries when the domin expired and it subsequently fell out of our (the XML:DB initiative) hands. The official link for the XML:DB initiative is now http://xmldb-org.sourceforge.net. As you point out, the XML:DB initiative is currently also suffering from lack of resources and progress has stalled.
