Since we're still unsure if ivanromanov is reachable or not, I'd say:

- open a BZ ticket on that package, asking ivanromanov to become the
main-admin
- wait and see if the package will be orphaned in case the main-admin is
removed by this policy, then you can take it over

I don't think it's wortwhile to open a unresponsive maintainer ticket at
this point.
