Thanks for the reminder. So that solves the "asking" part.

Does anyone *not* think that the Wikidata engineering team is the correct place for this?

Lydia - can you assign someone to come up to speed at whatever level Denny requires to feel comfortable making the transfer?

Denny wrote [1] that we are open to transferring the project to a new
owner: "If anyone wants to take over the project, we would invite you
to contribute a bit for a while, and then let’s discuss about it. I
would be thrilled to see this tool develop.". This still stands :-)

Cheers,
Tom
