Mail Simon one more time, saying that since he doesn't seem to be
interested in updating the module any more you would like to upload a
version with your fix in it.  CC [email protected] on your message, to
provide evidence that you've done this.

If Simon hasn't responded to your message within a few weeks then write
to [email protected] drawing their attention to this and asking to be
made a co-maintainer of the module.

"Absent without leave" -- a military term for somebody who is missing
without permission.

Good luck!

Simon
