[racket] Another PLaneTs crypto lib usage question?...

I have forked the crypto package to perform these actions for my own code
and to fix some other problems with post 1.0.0 versions of OpenSSL. I
submitted a bug report that at least removes the errors when we go to later
OpenSSL versions, but haven't seen any response. I don't have the
throughput to take over maintenance of the package, but would be happy to
give my forked version over to anyone who does.
Do we have a process for taking over orphaned projects like this? Or does
anyone know the original developers?
