The list of maintainers is public; in this case,

    https://hackage.haskell.org/package/toml/maintainers/

But that doesn't solve the problem of *contacting* a maintainer; all
you get is a name and a list of other packages they maintain.

Still, maybe it would help if this feature was more prominent?
A direct link from the package description page could work, though
it's not obvious where the best place is. An unobtrusive but perhaps
too subtle place would be the "package maintainers" phrase under
"Maintainer's Corner".  The obvious place to look is in the summary
box, but that is already very crowded.

Cheers,

Bertram
