Thanks for posting that, Patrick.  If you have never made a proper versioned 
release of your library, then its safe to say that its a long way from getting 
into Pd-extended.  Here is the full process (which is what I do for the 
libraries I maintain in Pd-extended):

<grump>It seems that "getting into Pd-extended" has come to mean "let Hans 
maintain it for me", and this is no longer a viable option.</grump>  But it is 
now easy to distribute and install libraries, so if you make your library a 
libdir and post it to puredata.info/downloads, people will be able to easily 
find and install your libraries.
