My approach, if I wanted the package, would be to send an Intent to
Adopt email.  If the maintainer does not object then I would make an
upload making myself the maintainer (or co-maintainer).

If the maintainer does object then presumably you can have a
conversation with them.  If all they do is say "no" to ITA but don't
actually do anything else, then I think you should ask the TC.
