I would suggest to start by familiarizing yourself with the upstream
codebase.
Looks like the official location of the code is in bzr on launchpad, but
Dustin has a mirror of it in github:

@Robie
Thank you for the response. If I were interested in taking on
maintenance of this package, where would you recommend I start? I have
some python experience, but don't understand the inner workings of
Ubuntu (e.g. I wouldn't even know how to install this package after I
download it so I'm
@Gary
Thank you for the feedback. What you've said makes sense, and I agree
that the use case you describe is valuable to some users.
Unfortunately with the resources we have, we can only justify
maintaining packages that are used by many users. I'm not sure there are
enough users in this case.
Perhaps I'm too late on this, but powernap is exactly the application
that I'm looking for. I am running a headless Ubuntu home server as a
NAS and web server. The server is typically only being accessed 1-2
hours a day so I would prefer that it go into a lower power state when
not being used.
Removing packages from focal:
powernap 2.21-0ubuntu2 in focal
powernap 2.21-0ubuntu2 in focal amd64
powernap 2.21-0ubuntu2 in focal arm64
powernap 2.21-0ubuntu2 in focal armhf
powernap 2.21-0ubuntu2 in focal i386
I have discussed this again with @canonical-server team and it seems
that this package is python2 and maintainer (@dustin) said there won't
be any updates to this in the future.
It looks like the recommended similar behaviour, to what powernap was
providing, is Ubuntu Openstack power saving

You're right Steve, I'll do some homework here and ask for another
review round.
Thanks for the feedback for now.

Normally we remove packages from Ubuntu when they are buggy. You say
this could be implemented other ways, but you don't actually point out
any bugs resulting from using this package to do it. What is the
maintenance burden removed by removing this package?
