When preparing a patch a few days ago, I ran into the same situation
as OP, and I failed to find your private repo.

I did manage to find https://github.com/mkerrisk/man-pages but that
seemed to lag as well, when comparing to the patches marked as merged
on the mailing list. (Just as other forks on GitHub did)

While I also think that it would be nice to have the canonical repo
updated, I can of course also see the isseus of getting push access to
kernel.org.

So as a kind of stop-gap mitigation (?), I've set up
https://github.com/somechris/man-pages

It's a read-only clone of your repo.
This clone gets updated hourly from your private repo.
The description holds a reference to your repo and this thread.
And since it's on GitHub it'll hopefully help get picked up by search
engines and help to better expose the freshly merged commits from your
repo, and help people to create patches against your up-to-date repo.

Have fun,
Christian


P.S.: If you think that yet-another-linux-man-pages-repo-on-GitHub is
counter-productive or you object to have your server queried for new
commits every hour, please let me know and I'll tear that repo down
again.
