I have, in fact, lost interest in these packages. I was packaging them
because I was also upstream for them - and then I stopped working on
them as an upstream, so I stopped working on them as a packager too.

Yes please - I think a new maintainer would be great. That said - both
are essentially abandoned upstream, so it might be worthwhile looking to
see if it makes sense for them to remain in debian at all.
