Hi Tomas,

As a general rule, to get requests more quickly processed, it's better to
give/remind context. The more the better...
It's definitely probably applicable to some other requests here from time
to time.

To remind the general requirements: to become maintainer (and you're warmly
welcome to it, thanks again), one has to show that:

   - the plugin seems indeed to be lacking an active maintainer ;
   - [s]he's tried to contact existing/previous maintainers.
      - And that the time has already been long enough to give room for
      those people to answer.
   - if applicable, reminding the plugin is already marked with the
   "adopt-this-plugin". For example to clarify why there would be nobody in
   CC, see the next line.
   - provide as much as possible explanation *upfront* for any weirdness
   that the people like me are going to ask themselves about, see below.


As one of the people processing those emails on my free time, here's why I
didn't immediately do it and went to my next pressing thing when I saw your
email, because yes I saw it previously: here's what I thought and hadn't
time to check the link:
"OK, he's asking to become the maintainer of some plugin, but there's
nobody in CC. No explanation at all, I'll see it later"

Then, I saw it again, and clicked on the link, where I saw you seemed to be
the last active maintainer. So I thought:

"WAT?!" :-)

And now I've got a bit more time to send that email for your request and in
general, I can ask those questions.

If you had upfront clarified that you *were already* the last maintainer,
and you somehow managed to lost access, and would like to get granted that
and so on. We would most probably have all saved time :-). Add the link to
the previous apparently only partly done request, and so on. If it's 'just'
that you're unable to release, say it so too. You told apparently a bit
more things in the last email.

So, I just re-set you as committer on that GH repo just in case. I also
made you the lead of that plugin.

If you don't know how to release, please refer to the documentation
<https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Hosting+Plugins#HostingPlugins-Releasingtojenkinsci.org>.
If something is missing, please tell us or enrich the wiki page yourself.

Thank you
