I suggest the following procedure which worked well for me:
1. Commit your patches to a branch on top of master.
2. Ping Thomas here or privately about your branch.
3. Repeat (2) until merged.

I don't push to master myself, because Thomas is maintaining it and I don't want to abuse this.

Please excuse typos. Written with a touchscreen keyboard.

Yes -- let me flag it more prominently as an osmo-trx patch, maybe we can have
this merged one day :)

Merging patches to osmo-trx is currently TT's privilege & responsibility,
right? Ah, I also see some commits by Alexander... should I push this myself,
then? (I wonder whether I have push access)
