If a maintainer doesn't respond then we need to find someone to take
over. If you want to do this, that's great.
If the current version doesn't work, then replacing it with one that
does work can be done right now. If your plugin adds a lot of features
and the old one did work then we better postpone including it until
after the 7.3 release.

The acknowledged parents of reengineering are Michael Hammer and James Champy.
When I say they're the "parents" I don't mean they had sex - and I apologize
for making you think about it. I mean they wrote the best-selling business
book _Reengineering the Corporation_, which was published in 1993.
Businesses flocked to reengineering like frat boys to a drunken
cheerleader. (This analogy wasn't necessary, but I'm trying to get my mind
off that Hammer and Champy thing.)
