The case of a sadly deceased maintainer should be handled just like the
case for a non-responsive maintainer—the Hackage trustees should be asked
to allow Jappie to take over the package.

Hi Jappie,
It is really sad, but I want to note that Muranushi-san, the original author of the package, deceased several years ago [1]. I lament for his prominent talent.
I cannot see the procedure in the case maintainer is known to be deceased in Wiki page [2]. I think replacing *maintainer* with *bereaved family of maintainer* makes sense, but I'm not sure.
With regards,

Hi,
I wish to take over the maintainership of the binary search package. The company I work for (riskbook) currently uses binary search. However the current version doesn't build from hackage because ghc changed how setting files are used, so I made a PR simply deleting that: https://github.com/nushio3/binary-search/pull/3 That has been several months ago and now I'm running against the same issue.
There hasn't been a from the author (nushio3), and the email address CC'ed in here are full according to gmail.
With regards,
