It is quite easy. If it is small, you should probably start by
send-pr'ing the code (as patches, usually) as an an enhancement
request, and then mention in a couple of places (as you just did) that
the code exists. If it is a small thing and well written, typically
someone will simply integrate it.

If it is something big, you probably should put the code up for review
(perhaps by FTP with a mail message announcing it) and get a person
with commit privileges to integrate them.

Of course, if you start writing enough code often enough, someone will
inevitably try to convince you get commit privileges yourself...
