In cases of a sole active admin, typically we'd like to see that admin step up into the role of a bureaucrat. In some cases, that's not the desire of that user.

The rest, is essentially how ThisIsmyrofl put it. This situation would rely heavily on community consensus and the adoption process would go smoothly if that discussion already happened on the wiki. My advice: get that discussion going soon... and before you file an adoption request.
