Hey Jonathan,
This is awesome! I think for the most part you should
commit your patches directly, once you have the approval of
the maintainer of a given library, which is sounds like you
have for cyclone.
For the rest of the libraries, the author is no longer the
maintainer, so you can start by asking here.

Hi Pd-dev-ers,
I've got a bunch of external
help patch revisions where I corrected
typos and added a [pd META] subpatch to each help
patch. (Additionally,
I added help patches for some objects that did not
have them.)
This makes it possible to
search through externals (as well as
internals) for any info that's listed in the
KEYWORD/values pairs (which are just comments inside the [pd
META] subpatch).
The revisions for cyclone are ready to commit, as are
some other libraries.
For cyclone, I contacted Krzysztof Czaja (author) and
Christoph Kummerer
(original help patch author), who made some
suggestions which I added.
Other than contacting the author(s) of each library,
is there anything
else I need to do before I commit the revisions?
Also, I've got a basic search patch going where you
can search all tags,
and I've almost finished making it possible to search
for individual tag
values. You can see three screenshots at:
