It's really best if all MediaWiki extensions exist in Wikimedia's gerrit
instance. More people will review it and localization will automatically be
done as well.

Wikimedia's gerrit automatically pushes to github, but it's under
Wikimedia's repos, not ours. We can fork them and automatically update our
