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?

Hi Tom, all,
Have you considered asking Google to transfer ownership of the project since they're no longer doing anything with it?
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
