You can send your patches directly to me, or the mailinglist. 
Preferably patches generated with 'git format-patch' such that a proper 
commit message, author name, etc is already in place. But if you're not 
familiar with git, don't worry, I accept plain patches too.

Please note that the events as they exist now, are deprecated and will 
be removed in the near future. The current design (which is heavily 
biased towards the Suunto's) isn't scalable to the large number of 
devices supported by the libdivecomputer library. There is no (final) 
replacement design yet, but I'm leaning towards delivering events as raw 
binary data (so no information is ever lost) and simply document the 
format. See also item #6 on the roadmap:
