It used to be that I would echo all OIIO pull requests to oiio-dev, since there 
was no way for non-owners of the GitHub repo to be automatically told about 
pull requests.  This also served to keep subscribers to oiio-dev very informed 
about what changes were being made to OIIO, and to follow the individual 
discussions about new features or changes.

Nowadays, GitHub allows users to "watch" a repo, which lets you follow the pull 
requests and issues filed, even if you aren't an owner.  Once GH added this 
feature, we stopped echoing pull requests by hand.  

When we do "releases", we still announce it here on oiio-dev (and 
oiio-announce), including the lists of what has changed.  But if you want to 
stay informed on what is being added to the trunk as it happens, and 
potentially participate in the reviews or discussion about new features or 
changes, we now rely on you to "watch" the project on GH.  That's not to say 
that important discussions won't happen on oiio-dev as well, but generally 
speaking, if you want to be fully informed and up-to-date about issues with the 
code itself, you need to be both watching on GH as well as subscribed to 
oiio-dev.
