As I am new to vim-dev, who usually submits this to the repository? Can
anyone make a cvs/svn/whateveryouuse-account?

PS: vim rocks.
IIUC, checkins to the official sources repository are done by Bram Moolenaar
himself after he has seen and approved the relevant changes. In some cases he
may request that people "test" a patch for some time before making it
official. He reads the @vim.org newsgroups.
I'm not sure what happens in the case of the files (such as some runtime
files) which are maintained by someone else: I think they email any changes to
Bram, who commits them to the repository.
BTW (in case you submit more patches in the future), the preferred format for
a patch is a context diff, as produced by "diff -c", so that it is
understandable to both humans and the "patch" program.
See also ":help develop.txt".
Best regards,
Tony.
