You can.

If you do this, the standard is:

MAINTAINER="orphaned - no maintainer"
EMAIL="nobody at nowhere.com"

(Yes, I know, the email address should be something undeliverable, I'm just
repeating what's actually there)

Before you do that though... We do updates weekly, late Friday night
(or early Saturday morning), so maybe wait until after the weekly
update and see if any of them have new maintainers.
