I remember that I skipped that package during the l10n NMU campaign because of RC bugs I was unable to fix at that time. It's good to see someone wanting to take the package over. I'd say "just go ahead". If you hijack the package, I suggest you fix the pending l10n bugs. Sending a call for debconf templates review to debian-l10n-english could be a good idea (even if you're a native speaker, some style recommendations could come). And, finally, if debconf templates are changed, I suggest you sent calls for translation updates to translators (with "podebconf-report-po") and a call for new translations (with "podebconf-report-po --call"). Many thanks for your concern in this abandoned package.
