Lol. It's an IP library. IP classifications haven't changed. What could he possibly update?
There's a whole bunch of pull requests and issues sitting there for a start.
Personally I'd also update the example in the readme and set an engine value in the package.json file.
Then fork it and do that.
These projects are structured as hobbyist projects and get whatever time the maintainer can spare. I have projects like that, they're useful, but I'm not gonna prioritize them over... anything else, come to think of it.
The fact so many people treat a hobbyist project with one maintainer as critical infrastructure is insane, but that's on them. Everybody likes free software, nobody likes to help or pay the maintainer.
