Just added you to the maintainer's list. Sorry for the delayed response, I've been away from reliable internet for a few weeks.

When you upload the next version, please also update the contact info to yours. I'll say on my site that you're the new maintainer.

I'd like to take over maintenance of the package re2. It is built against old version of re2 library, never updated after 2014 and listed as "deprecated" on the author's website. I rather update this one than add another package for the same bindings.

I tried to contact owner a week ago, but to no avail. My hackage username is blaze.
