There is an adoption process for truly inactive maintainers: http://neilb.org/2013/07/24/adopt-a-module.html - you can also often get somewhere by just asking the current maintainer nicely by email. The timeliness of the process in the event of a non-repsonsive maintainer depends on luck and how much depends on the module. In the end it doesn't matter if a group or a person adopts it - someone still has to decide to do the work. |

This is good, but to me it's too tedious. I can't wait a month for something to happen. The solution so far has been to fire up a Pinto server and serve "home-made-patched" versions of modules, which only benefits myself, not the community.

What could be more intrusive than creating a pull request or git issue? An email.
