Wasn't clear from the email and this will definitely shape some of the direction depending on if its available or not.

According to this tweet from Steve Jones, no code/infrastructure was part of the sale.

Nope. No code. Just the brand stuff.

Was the source code worth anything? The way some parts of the PASS site worked, it seems like DBA's wrote the code, not a web developer!

Well, without it, we're at zero. I'd have much rather put the site back up as it was and then talk about how to get to a better place over the course of a few months or more versus having nothing but the logo.
And to be fair, some of that might have been written by a DBA (me!) way back when, though the code has been through a lot of iterations, not least of which was the DNN integration.

No code or data was offered for sale, and we have nothing. The only bits we have are videos.
I am hoping we can get the domains live in some static way soon.

Having worked on a lot of "take this crappy code and make it scale" projects, given what I've heard about the SQLSaturday code and having been an admin for a few SQL Saturdays, we would be better off with starting over. We know what it did and what it looked like. The details to make it happen are probably best re-invented.
