If you'd like to contribute some sources for openjdk, you have to become 
a contributor (details are here: http://openjdk.java.net/contribute/).

To develop some new components or extend an existing one I'd recommend 
to use the official site dev.java.net. You have to pass some steps:
1. Become a contributor: https://sca.dev.java.net/
2. Create a new project: http://www.java.net/request-project

After that your project will be more official and you could get feedback 
from Sun employers and other people.

Regards, Pavel
