It's still an extended test. You cannot push to it, since it's just a 
mirror.

How do you expect to suddenly switch every last person over from the ML 
to a new tool?
There's always going to be a transition period where both are in use, 
gradually shifting.
So yes, for now there needs to be eyes on both.

Hopefully pushing to it/hitting the merge button should be possible soon 
(hinges on cooperation with Videolan), making more people look at it and 
subscribe to E-Mail notifications of what's going on there.

I also still intend to write a script that forwards at least PRs to the 
ML for the time being, without causing the massive spam that just 
forwarding notifications does.
