I noticed the WiSH drivers for X10 home automation devices

WiSH still too immature, or are X10 devices too exotic to include
support for? What's the general procedure on getting device drivers
included in Fedora?

If it doesnt require patches and is a standalone software, you can
package it in Fedora Extras
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras
If it requires patches, encourage the developers to submit it and get
it included in the upstream project. For the kernel the procedure is
documented in
http://lxr.linux.no/source/Documentation/SubmittingDrivers
