Given that Bazaar is GPL v2 and the contributor agreement is not that onerous IMHO (e.g. you retain copyright to your contributed changes), what's stopping the user community from stepping up to help to maintain it, just like any other free software? If it's lack of interest, then okay, that happens with projects all the time. If it's something else, then please identify, as it may be possible to fix organizational or other issues to make it easier for folks to contribute to the project and move it along, regardless of Canonical's sponsorship.
