I did not reach out to Simon. I did notice that he had done a few releases last year but wasn't sure if he was was acting as a maintainer since he wasn't listed as one on the plugin Wiki page. At any rate, he did respond to my pull request with some comments about 13 hours ago, so perhaps I was a little hasty in reaching out to the dev mailing group.
While I have your ear, I tried to sign up for a JIRA account a while back and it sent me to a page that said I had to request a login from this group, which I did, but I never heard back. Did I post to the wrong mailing list or miss a step somewhere? What is the process to get a JIRA account? If this question is better asked in a new thread I can do that.
Anyway, thanks for the quick reply to my original inquiry.
