Technically, it would require a bit of work to transfer over, unless Rendo bought the contentparadise.com domain along with the codebase for Poser and etc. (which, to be honest, they kind of should have, since it would make nearly everything easier to transition and slowly migrate. But anyrate...)
Typically, there's an agreement somewhere to keep old stuff alive for one or two years, with a widely announced transition date (after which the old stuff all dies off.)
No idea at all what Rendo has going in that direction, though. Their priority was most likely centered on code escrow, merch migration from CP to Rendo's internal store, making sure developer resources (and tribal knowledge thereof!) were/are kept as intact as possible... you know, critical stuff. Pretty sure that CP forum posts, no matter how useful they might have been (or might still be) are, on the priority scale, kinda low.
But then, that's kind of up to them, to see if they'll bother translating from whatever software CP used over to Bondware, then stashing it all somewhere. It's not technically hard to do, but it would be tedious as all heck.
