If you're planning on adopting the package and becoming the new maintainer,
then it's not a non-maintainer upload, it's a "new maintainer upload". You
can also close the RFA bug.
Beyond that, not knowing anything about the package or it's surrounding use
cases, I'm probably not the best person to review it, but if you haven't had
an upload from someone else by mid next week, ping me and I'll
review/upload.
Thanks for taking care of an aging package, too...
