Note that I'm aware of, but I don't use org-contacts.el, so maybe
other will have more information.

I'm copying Julien, the original author of org-contacts.el, to check
if he plans to maintain org-contacts.el further and if he's okay for
someone to take over.
That someone could be you: better to have a maintainer than no one.
Also, org-contacts.el is part of the "contrib/" directory in Org's
repository and soon after 9.4 we will strip this directory out of the
org-mode.git repo, so having someone taking care of individual contrib
packages would be really appreciated.

I'm afraid most tricks will be general Org tricks, no directly related
to the code in org-contacts.el -- but perhaps I'm wrong.
