There should be merge requests for u-u repositories and as long as the maintainer reviews them noone will have to push anything. And of course we want to encourage people to be active and review MRs against their repositories. But you know very well that there can be repositories where the owner temporarily loses interest in Exherbo or his repository. This can lead to situations where important fixes or even fixes for severe security vulnerabilities are not pushed for a longer time. I think this is not good for anyone and we should have a solution for how we deal with this. After all, we expect that repositories in u-u have some minimum level of quality, otherwise they would not be there. And I think, here response time is also a measure for quality. This is the only reason why I would like us to have a way to push to these repositories, in case it becomes necessary - while I hope that we do not have to use it.
