There is a cron job that runs hourly, which rebuilds https://opam.ocaml.org with the latest packages.  It should normally update within the hour, and your PR was merged 20 minutes ago.  If it hasn't shown up within the next 60-90 minutes, then begin a gentle panic, but until then it is a normal delay in the publishing workflow :-)

To get it immediately, you can:
-  `opam init https://github.com/ocaml/opam-repository.git` on a new repository 
- `opam repo set-url default https://github.com/ocaml/opam-repository.git` to an existing installation

which will fetch the packages directly and bypass the OPAM HTTP mirror.

regards,
Anil
