hi - I'm new to this development list so please excuse me if I'm not doing things right (like top-posting or bottom-posting, etc.)

I would like to contribute an additional vector distance function to the absolutely wonderful scipy.spatial.distance package written by Damian Eads.  I have a patch for scipy/spatial/distance.py written for scipy version 0.7.1 a while back.

Could someone please advise me on how to incorporate the patch?  I don't know if the repo is in github or somewhere else.  Also (not to be self-aggrandizing!) but would it be possible to add my name somewhere to this file if the patch gets makes it in successfully?
