The idea is that all events on GitHub are forwarded to the vimdev
maillist.  Christian had setup something for that.  I believe this also
applies to pull requests.

I indeed prefer to discuss changes on the maillist, since everybody can
join and it keeps everything in one place.  I also plan to keep
including patches as before, not directly using the pull request.

We'll see how it goes.
