(1) You can always fork: ask for a project named cl-curses or whatever.
(2) I agree with the basic issue. I think a reasonable approach in case
of clnet would be to make a fair effort to reach the original owner,
and give him ample time (say a year) to respond. If he doesn't
respond tar up the project as owned by him, and move the ownership
to the intrepid taker-ower. If he is ever back and upset, explain
the situation hand over the original tarball and offer to reinstate
it as the project in question moving the interim stuff elsewhere.
...but (1) makes a good start.
