If yes, I'd be happy to take over. (btw how > package becames orphaned?) I think the same case will be the python-nacl > and python-bcrypt Yeah, we could probably do with a clearer policy on that. There are two cases: The first is simple: A package can become orphaned by it's maintainer announcing that they are orphaning it, or retiring. The second is not so clear: A package is orphaned if it's maintainer is not responsive to queries as to if they still want to be the maintainer of the package. It's undefined how many times we should ping, or how long we should wait for a response, but I think that the ~10 months that's elapsed here is more than enough!
