Perhaps the way to look at it is that in the case where isn't directly helpful to the maintainer (as in your specific case), it can be helpful to those with a desire to collaborate in some way.

2025-05-27 Thread Roberto C . Sánchez
kage is maintained in Salsa, and there is recent activity, then that is probably a good way to interact with the maintainer. But absent that (either because the project in Salsa doesn't permit all DDs push access or because it's simply not in Salsa), the guidance from devref seems to cover the situation rather well.
