My sentiments would largely remain the same if the field was just

should somehow be mentioned too.
But if it was just "maintainer" then there is no problem dropping
all previous authors who are no longer involved in the maintenance
(they still get their credit in the POD section on authorship and
copyright anyways).
I would go with "contact", and basically just rename "author" to that.
I'm cool with putting optional author/contributor information under
"resources".
Best,
