It's a limitation of the Github API. The app sends notifications after receiving a web hook from Github, and you can only add web hooks for repos you own.

Yet another reason why Github supporting PubSubHubbub would be amazing, as they have RSS for any repo anyway :)

They have some pubsubhubbub support (http://developer.github.com/v3/repos/hooks/#pubsubhubbub), but you still need write access to create a web hook on the account.
