Hm.  Maybe this will help:

Did you try these newsgroups?

comp.arch.embedded
comp.realtime
comp.os.os9
comp.sys.m68k

Microware is supposed to have a WWW page at http://www.microware.com
but it doesn't seem to be working.... Their email is at 
info@microware.com

Finally, there is an OS/9 FAQ at:

OS-9 FAQ
SUB:OS-9
USE:
FTP:
WWW:
http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~pruyne/os9faq.html
MAI:Boisy G. Pitre, boisy@microware.com
REM:Remarks

Our WWW page at http://www.cera.com/faqroad.htm may also have other 
pointers which will help, such as the 68K FAQ....

Hope this helps!
