The bazel package
https://pkgs.alpinelinux.org/package/edge/testing/x86_64/bazel needs an
update one of these days. Is there a polite way to ping the person who
contributed it? There's no contact link on the listing

It's best to create MR with update yourself, if you're able to.

People come and go, they have no obligations to support stuff they're no 
longer interested in.

Sure; in this case I was looking for more information about how it was
done, and I'm in contact with him, and all is well.

You can use the "Flag" button on the same webpage. It will send a
notification to the maintainer that package is outdated.

FWIW there's already a MR for bazel which is currently stalled due to
the build being broken on CI, see:
