I can't speak for early 2009 when that article was published, but does any of this stand true today still?

They have a changelog here: http://www.truecrypt.org/docs/?s=version-history Their contact page says they're registered in the US and gives an address: http://www.truecrypt.org/contact

OK, can't speak for their forum banning as I'm not familiar with that situation and correct I cannot find any public repositories - but that's not too rare for some open source projects.

The reasons for being partially anonymous are pretty clear, I doubt various governments are a great fan of TrueCrypt especially with its plausible deniability.

Did you wonder why they have their address in that page as an image?

Apparently it is also near an air force base http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1533674
