There is a link to a pre-release of the MASC data that I have but am not sure I can share. I believe they are planning to have a finalized version out in September.
AFAIK, the MASC data is unencumbered -- Nancy Ide is very committed to having truly open data and annotations. It would be great if the community can give back to the OANC with further annotations, tools, and such -- some of the annotation stuff being discussed here would could be great for this.
