Can I just upload it on the subversion server and you will look into it as in wikipedia? Will there be a discussion here before taking it into the package? Must I provide a patch? If yes, how do I do it?

Well, it's basically the same way as in most other OSS projects:
 - create a patch
 - open an issue and attach the patch
 - wait, wait some more, nag, wait again :)

On creating a patch see here:
 http://typo3.org/development/bug-fixing/diff-and-patch/

Then go to the FLOW3 issue tracker on Forge and submit a new issue
(feature/bug depending on what you did).
 http://forge.typo3.org/projects/package-flow3/issues
Describe what you did and attach your patch.

Regads,
Karsten
