From my comment on bug 33562:
I guess upstream author abandoned or lost interest into the project. Despite 29
pull requests and several mails sent to his various email addresses, I have not
heard back from him.
I think we should take over the project and fork it under the wikimedia team on
Github. Merge the pull requests, include our changes. Then release a new
version making it clear we are taking over the project.
Version: unspecified
Severity: enhancement
