As you've seen, there's a new release now, so presumably you can just upgrade :).

Roughly, yes.  I think there's more maintainer overlap with Klein than with Ldaptor though, possibly just due to the broader applicability of "web".

In the short term - volunteer to be a release manager for one of these projects to try to coordinate a release :).

In the long term and more significantly, the thing would be to build a fully-automated release pipeline; make it possible for travis to push straight to PyPI on an appropriate tag, like what https://github.com/audreyr/cookiecutter-pypackage <https://github.com/audreyr/cookiecutter-pypackage> does.  This isn't as hard as it sounds, and that template has a good example you could work from.
