The current integration with BIMserver ist still based on version 1.3.4. You will need a Java 8 JRE (or older) for this version. On first run wait for the BIMserver to expand and drop the OSMserializer plugin into the plugins folder. Setup the admin user and then you should be able to connect. You can use the BIMserver API or console (web app) to check if the plugin has been loaded, e.g. with PluginInterface.getAllSerializers. You should see something like this in the result:

{ "__type": "SSerializerPluginConfiguration",
  "description": "OsmSerializer",
  "enabled": true,
  "name": "Osm",
  ...
}

As for compatibility with newer versions: I believe the API that OpenStudio talks to for login, project selection etc. has not changed much, except that the interfaces where renamed, e.g. from Bimsie1AuthInterface to just AuthInterface. You can find the current interfaces, methods and parameters here, for example. If in doubt, I can also review the respective code - I already had a look. The OsmSerializer probably needs a bit more work, since the plugin system has changed a bit and those the wrapping/integration code needs updates. Also the serializer should be updated to handle both IFC2x3 and IFC4.

I would be glad to assist with the update to a recent version, both for the OpenStudio pieces as well as the serializer plugin. Since the serializer requires a bit of OpenStudio expertise, I would prefer the plugin to stay and be maintained in the OpenStudio realm, but feel free to invite me as a contributor to a forked OsmSerializer repository.
