mpg321 package adoption

[Nanakos Chrysostomos <debian_mpg@wired-net.gr>]

Dear Sir,
i would like to adopt an orphaned package named mpg321. The maintainer ( 
Joe Drew ) who was the main upstream developer has no active 
participation anymore and i cant come in touch with him via email. I 
have already contributed to the development of the package since 
2005-2006 and i have come very close in finishing the TODO list and 
uploading the next version (0.2.11). I have already subscribed to the 
mailing list and i am following the proper procedure. Can you please 
tell me what is the next step(s)?

With kind regards,
Chrysostomos.
