Already contacted two of the current maintainers. But the one I reached at slack cannot add additional maintainers. Will now contact rest of them.

These offers need to about a single request. Since it has been created as offered to be co-maintainer, it cannot be changed to be an offer to be the new project owner.

@avpaderno I didn't know that yet. But it makes sense if this issue should be part of the official process. I will add a second issue and connect them.

@c-logemann You need to open a single issue, but that issue needs to be for the higher role you want to get. That cannot be changed five months after the issue was created, though.

@avpaderno OK you wrote "single request" but I think it's not so obvious on this doc page → . Now I will follow the process but I think it's a little bit unflexible in cases like this. First I came along and just wanted to offer my help. Yesterday I chatted with a maintainer and he gave me the idea for taking over ownership.
Changes without discussion with existing maintainers is currently even too easy in my opinion. In the past I had a situation where I was only a Co-Maintainer and was suddenly removed by a new owner who dropped any support for the old code. On another project I had a discussion with an owner (without any co-maintainers) and he just decided to give me ownership. What if the current maintainers of this project also want to do this in this case?
