Hi Sebastian,

I am currently working on something to support this kind problem 
exactly.  Getting code in to the official GNU Radio repository is not 
easy, it must follow many conventions, you must have an FSF copyright, 
and you must maintain it.  Additionally, you have to wait for very busy 
people (Eric) to help in the process :)

You can read more about the issue here:

Within the next week or two, I will be releasing CGRAN: The 
Comprehensive GNU Radio Archive Network.  It provides full access to a 
subversion repository and wiki access for project documentation.  Your 
upload your code as is and anyone can help maintain it.  Anyone will 
then be able to find your project, download it, and use it.

If you want to get a head start e-mail me, your project can be one of 
the first released with CGRAN to give people an idea of what it's all about.
