This last week we elected Boone Gorges to step up as the Plugins team repTeam Rep A Team Rep is a person who represents the Make WordPress team to the rest of the project, make sure issues are raised and addressed as needed, and coordinates cross-team efforts.. Over the next week I will be working with him to get him up to speed so you should see updates from him starting next week.
Earlier today Mika posted a nice summary of how the takeover of abandoned plugins is handled: https://make.wordpress.org/plugins/2014/02/06/clarification-on-taking-over-plugins/
