How to deal with broken MASTER_SITES/WWW?

Looking through my installed ports to see if any are unmaintained, I came
across a port of which the MASTER_SITE(S) and WWW are down. The site
itself (WWW) says it's currently down for maintenance, but it's been like
that for at least a week, if not longer. And with the MASTER_SITE(S) down
the distfile is only available from the FreeBSD mirror.

Should I just take maintainership, add my own mirror to MASTER_SITES and
wait for the site to come back online, or are there other steps to be
taken?
