Those are free game for anybody to commit to (and, ideally, take over  
maintainership).

In general the best way to do this is to submit tickets, and email  
the maintainer about them. If the maintainer doesn't respond in 3  
days, or if there is no maintainer, email this list with the tickets  
(be sure to state the maintainer didn't respond after 3 days if  
that's the case).. Generally somebody looks at the tickets and  
commits them if they're fine, or tells you what's wrong if they aren't.
