BCL measure manual install without key - help needed

Hi, I don't have an access key to the BCL, and they are currently not sending confirmation emails to new accounts. I've been told this is because they are moving their server to GitHub and this will be done by July. Well, my project deadline is the 30th of June and BCL have not responded to any help request emails.

Does anyone know how to install measures and components without a key? I can drop them in the measures folder but they do not show up in OS. Is there an easy way to convert them to user measures so I can use them? I've tried dropping theri contents in new user measures, attempting to alter class, but I don't really know what I'm doing with code so they fail. I understand it's a file-path issue. Anyone able to help?

Alternately, if someone with a key is able to duplicate some BCL measures for me so they could be used in my copy of OS, that would be great. Obviously I'd prefer to have my own key but I can't count on them getting back to me before I run out of time. Thanks.
