Ok, sounds like a good plan.

Yes, since mobile is an official OpenJDK project [3], we'd be more than 
happy to provide you with a repository at 
https://git.openjdk.java.net/mobile (which will redirect to 
https://github.com/openjdk/mobile).

Yes, we have bots for syncing between repositories and/or branches, 
depending a little bit on your needs. Please contact me and Robin 
privately and we can work out the details.

Thanks!
