Dear Igor,

Thank you very much for notifying us about the intended package, and you are 
very 
welcome to present it for a wider audience.

To decide what to do next when your package will be available, please see the 
page 
Submitting Contributions to GAP: http://www.gap-system.org/Contacts/submit.html

Quoting that page, there are two options listed there:

***

1) Submitting Material for Formal Refereeing

The author of a contribution that is intended for formal acceptance should 
begin the process by notifying the Chair of the GAP Council by emailing 
coun...@gap-system.org, providing full information where the complete material 
has been placed.

2) Submitting Deposited Contributions

You are also invited to provide material that is not intended for formal 
refereeing. To tell us about such material, contact supp...@gap-system.org. 
(Packages can also be put into this category while refereeing is in process.)

***

It is up to package authors to decide between these two options, and certainly 
it's possible to start with (2) and then decide to submit as in (1) at some 
stage later, or to submit the package for the refereeing as in (1) with or 
without depositing it simultaneously as in (2). 

Best wishes,
Alexander
