The scripts that you are talking about are not updated since that time, yes.

Basically (from the Blender side) are OSC senders of the movements and 
other triggers, allowing you to receive the controls from CLAM to use 
the spatialization plugin objects.

Some of the scripts are for the animation API, and the others for the 
GameEngine one (the paper that you named of the LAC talk about that use 
case).

At that time we were using blender 2.49. It should not be so difficult 
to update to the 2.5 API. I'll try to have a look on that on this 
holidays, but if you want to take the task, you are welcome and count 
with me if you need help (the adaptation of the scripts would not be 
difficult for me, but get used to the new blender UI yes :-/)

BTW, I know that there was other people doing some work with it. Adding 
feedback from CLAM or another application (through OSC) and synching 
with jack transport... But I'm not sure how much of that project it's 
publicly available at the moment. I'll ask about that.

And related (not with CLAM but with blender 3d audio spatialization), 
there is a recent approach to use blender as a spatialization tool, 
maybe you want to have a look to it :
