How to bring ddrescue up to date?

[Webbed.Pete@gmail.com]

(First time poster here. Hi all ;) )

The ddrescue package has not been updated in cygwin since 2013. However, the 
underlying app has gone through a LOT of improvement since then, all the way through 
this month.

Questions:
* How best to request an update by the maintainer?
* How hard for me to generate my own update?
* Are multiple maintainers allowed for a package?

Thanks!

Pete
