I think the general rule-of-thumb is to wait around 2 weeks for a reply.
However, this package is team-maintained, so I would get in touch with
the team first and ask them to sponsor the upload.  This way, you won't
need to wait that much and can do a team upload.

If contacting the team doesn't work, then yeah, I'd certainly go for a
NMU.
