Hi,
I guess one reason for using pull requests on a single repo was that
the package build can be triggered by some github hook. By just
pointing to latest or really just using the release repo, this would
become much more complicated and expensive since the system either
needed to subscribe to all repose which would only be possible if they
are hosted on github, or the system needed to continuously monitor
many repos.
