PECL Introduction

Hello PECL Team, I would like to make a PECL account and become a maintainer for two extensions. The first one is the operator extension, which is listed as unmaintained. I rewrote it for PHP8 back in Aug 2023 here: https://github.com/jb-lopez/php-operators and have created a PR for the extension here: https://github.com/php/pecl-php-operator/pull/6 The second one is the trader extension, which is listed as being maintained. However, I've had an open PR since Nov 2023 here: https://github.com/php/pecl-math-trader/pull/5 The listed maintainer is Anatol Belski. I've heard it said they are not that active anymore? Or perhaps creating PRs on GitHub is not the correct way? I do not have a php.net account, and I'm not sure if I need one. Please advise if I will need to apply for a php.net git account in addition as a PECL account. Thank you for your time, Joshua Lopez
