At this stage it is safe to say upstream is not being worked on and
someone needs to take over upstream to add the changes there, make a
new release and revive the project. SF used to have an abandoned
project takeover policy but that doesn't exist any more (they expect
you to fork) so it is likely that this might be impossible if you
cannot contact upstream.
