Yes, unfortunately I didn't have time to update (or upload) it lately.

That sounds perfect, thank you.  I have invited you as an owner to the
repo. Please transfer it to the DOM-team group. I don't think that
it's worth listing me as a co-maintainer, please follow the usual
group setup. If I have anything to add or to change in the project,
I'll just open an MR for the project.
