Customers? Customers of Cisco? Eh. Not the best argument I would use
to get people motivated/interested in, to be honest :)

You have list bellow Andy provided. You can try to send them private
message via SF.net.
I'm not sure if SF.net has any way of taking over of project when its
maintainers "went missing". I know CPAN does.

And again, I'm surprised how nobody wants to take over and continue,
yet everybody cries for project to move forward.

No, they are not being active and no, they are not working on ipmitool
and haven't been for some time now.

I've already outlined possibilities how to get ipmitool moving the
last time, so I'm not going to repeat myself. Of course getting access
to SF.net would be the best, because forking or keeping own patched
version ... from my point of view, it is not good for "end user".
