It's true, most of the tools were overtaken by another user, can you tell us which tools are still broken? I myself would prefer to move all these tools to wikimedia labs, as soon as it's possible, which would allow us to manage them together without separating it tool per user (eg no ~soxred/files but toolname/files) where all tools would have own git repository and devs could just update them together and push to "production".

fwiw, the same thing has been possible on the toolserver for quite a while now: Multi-maintainer projects (MMP)

maybe they're aren't used enough when making a tool but (I think) you can't blame the roots for that and (I guess/hope) making new MMPs is a relatively cheap/easy process.
