I also think that athomas is the best contact if you want commit rights. IMHO: You should first try to contact the original author and tell him/her your intention to take over the hack, then give it enough time, two weeks minimum. If there aren't responding post your intention in this group and again wait for any (negative) responses.
Also, in general, you can always fork from an open source project, but this might not always be good, because the hack name would change, etc..
