We (people from X2Go and Arctica) changed the nx-libs development  
workflow a bit, recently:

Now, we normally file pull requests (even internally in our team,  
except for small fixes) against the nx-libs 3.6.x branch on Github.  
All greater code changes happen for nx-libs 3.6.x first and then get  
backported to 3.5.0.x later (or not at all). All major commits/change  
shall reveive a code review and approval of another dev on the team.

So, the initial bug tracking / pull request tracking for nx-libs has  
been relocated to Github. Bugs for nx-libs on the X2Go bug tracker are  
for marking PRs or commits worth of being backported to the 3.5.0.x  
branch (which is handled by the X2Go devs, mainly Mihai Moldovan at  
the time being).

Basic splitup of workload: Arctica Project context maintains nx-libs  
3.6.x, X2Go context maintains nx-libs 3.5.0.x.

Also, Mihai fixed several TEST/DEBUG/DUMP issues on both branches  
(3.5.0.x and 3.6.x). It may well be that the fixes you provide here  
already exist on 3.5.0.x/HEAD (haven't checked that)?

Thus, could you do these following steps:

   o rebase your patch against nx-libs 3.6.x branch
   o clone https://github.com/ArcticaProject/nx-libs
   o create a pr/<describe-what-your-code-does> branch on your account
   o file a PR against ArcticaProject/nx-libs 3.6.x branch
   o wait for Ionic or me to review

In the future, I'd be happy to welcome you as another potential pull  
request reviewer, so we can distribute the workload even better. Once  
I see your PR, I will grant you write/commit access to nx-libs on  
github.com/ArcticaProject.

Greets,
Mike
