They put their e-mail in a PKGBUILD file for another of their AUR PKGBUILD

If the maintainer is not active and does not respond within a week or two then 
you could mark the package as out of date and then do an orphan request to take 
over the package.

I did that for the "blabel" package a few years ago since the previous 
maintainer didn't update it.
