openssh unix dev - Nov 2001 - OpenSSH 2.9.9.p2 port to IBM OS/390 Unix System Services

I have done a port of OpenSSH to Unix Systems Services on IBM mainframes
running 
OS/390. I have a version which seems to work with SSH 1 and 2, and most
of the ancillary programs seem to work as well. I'd really like to see
the changes (which mostly have to do with deciding which things need to
be translated between ASCII and EBCDIC) incorporated into the source
base. 

What is the best way to go about this? What does the release schedule
(if such a thing exists) look like?

You post the diff file to the list (or a URL posting to the diff file if
it is big).  Then it gets ripped apart by the OpenSSH Portable group.. And
slowly merged in.

As for release schedule.. It has never been set in stone except for the 6
month release (mirroring the OpenBSD release).
