I'd be interested in becoming the sponsored maintainer of this package. It seems like it would require a fairly low level of attention. It looks like it's used by ~14,000 installations, so it does seem like it should be maintained. I suppose I'd need a DD as sponsor? I've asked the systemd mailing list and asked to join the systemd project on alioth.
