As far as I know, there was no real coordination on those patches before, neither I saw any real steps from any side to get it up. That said, anyone can come up with an initiative to maintain those branches under some 3party roof (just push -eol tag into github and advertise), and if there is real (and not just anticipated) collaboration going on around it, then the project may reconsider getting it back in the big stadium. I am tired to say that again and again, but there should be some resource investment from interested parties, upfront, before infra takes part of the burden on their shoulders. Asking won't help.
