Great! Here's what comes up to mind:
1) Either you keep the code in your user on github or we host it in
xwiki-contrib: https://github.com/organizations/xwiki-contrib. The advantages
of hosting on xwiki-contrib is that you get a wiki, a jira, a maven repository
to release it, see http://contrib.xwiki.org + it's closer to the rest of xwiki
contribs/extensions . However there's absolutely not reason you couldn't keep
it in your github user if you prefer.
2) You can start by publishing what you have on http://extensions.xwiki.org and
make it downloadable so that people can start using it/provide feedback
3) Some devs from the xwiki dev team should review what you've done to decide
if we want to include it in xwiki-platform. Since 1) and/or 2) (they're
separate) are easy to do this point shouldn't be a blocker for them.
Let us know what you'd like to do.
Thanks a lot for contributing back!
-Vincent
