No need to report success. If the maintainer is happy with the ebuild and
there are no bugs filed for 30 days (or is it 90?) the package will be
moved from testing (~arch) to stable (arch).
Remember that these keywords are (generally) for the ebuild, and doesn't
indicate how well the product provided by upstream works.
