Hello, new Arch user here. Hoping someone can clarify the proper etiquette around submitting packages to the AUR.

I’ve written my own PKGBUILD for building and packaging someone else’s project, mainly just for personal use. If I decide I want to submit this package to the AUR, is it typically expected that I get permission from the primary project maintainer first? Furthermore, does submitting my PKGBUILD to the AUR obligate me to continue to maintain the package going forward?

The project is this, a small Wayland desktop clock utility. https://git.sr.ht/~leon_plickat/wlclock

It is licensed under the GPLv3, and is not currently in the AUR. (However there is an older, unmaintained version, under a different maintainer and repo.) https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wlclock-git

Thank you for any advice! :)
