I'm not too optimistic on finding someone to run this project. I asked 
on the list who the maintainer is [0], and no one came up. The repo at 
[1] also seems abandoned.

So if I fork the project, will you pull from my fork? If yes, what 
exactly would I have to do? Make a set of changes and then ask on the 
list for you to pull from my fork?

I am a relatively inexperienced programmer, and it feels like a kinda 
big responsibility that I'm not sure I am ready for. But maybe you can 
look at the changes from a high level POV before pulling, so there is 
someone sanity checking my changes.
