Thanks for following up! I also got help from the GitHub admins. Hannes Wallnoefer is the former maintainer, and he is in favor of this change. We had a discussion on this thread:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mozilla-rhino/g-7k20DCQMo and he also asked Sonatype to grant me access. https://issues.sonatype.org/browse/OSSRH-13520 At this point I have the access that I need to proceed, but I understand the need to have consensus and I hope that the stuff above will help. We also seem to have a mailing list issue. According to this page: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Projects/Rhino/Community the community hasn't been using the "js-engine.rhino" group for a long time due to spam issues, but it sounds like people are posting on it again. Is there a way that we can shut that old group down and redirect people to only one group?
