I had the same message, and talked to him via email and Facebook. The ETA then was for things to be shipped in a week. That sounded a bit too good to be true, but I assumed that things had been put in order prior to that email and so it would all run smoothly from there.
Yes, since then I haven't had any further response, nor have I seen much of a presence from Dan on Facebook. He had initially commented on a post over on one of the modern groups complaining about the company, which was then followed by the emails saying things were back on track, but I've no idea if there's correlation - or like the last time, what's actually going on.
Yes, at the least hopefully if someone's claiming ownership of the company then a party like Sally Forth may have the clout to contact them and get to the bottom of this. If anything though, if there's the interest in Mike Bravo's ranges, that may be an excuse for another company to release their own figures covering those settings if they're not able to produce them (its unfortunate that we don't have any soldiers with IMI Tavors in 28mm for example, those things crop up all over).
