Hi Pierluigi,
I think you can modify and redistribute the plugin [1] if you want 
because it should be release under the GNU General Public License [2].
Remember to release it under the same license and to cite the past 
developers after the licence. Maybe you can publish your plugin clearly 
marking it as for qgis 2.x.x only (some of the administrators of the 
repository can give a better answer).
Of course, it would be best contacting the original developers team but 
sometimes it could be impossible (is him/her in a wounderful island and 
doesn't think to touch a pc  for very much longer time again? ;) ).
Hope to not annoy nobody.
rob
