Yeah docs about pike glue should help programmer to add news glues...
Our intention exactly. :-)
BTW a bzip2 glues exist in Caudium's Pexts projects, feel free to add it ?
That sounds like a time-saver (then he can probably quickly move on to the next stage - implementing the same module via the cmod API). I take it you have no objections on donating the module to Pike, and releasing it under LGPL and MPL, then?
(A small question what it the politic to add new C/CMOD modules into pike tree ?)
Not much politics involved, besides the licensing, and having someone of us in the core development team, IDA or not, bless your code. :-)
Candidates for reviewing code are currently grubba, marcus, mast and per, but since neither have formally been appointed for the job, they should not be treated as if they were obligued to comply, or anything; if it turns out this does not work well, we'll have some homework to do about inventing something that does. (All of these people have jobs to do, you know, besides hacking about in Pike, so don't be pushy. :-)

applies as usual, of course -- if or when people feel we need more formalized rules, please tell us, or me (I'm not alone about this; we work as a team over here with bigger decisions).

Well, if that is what it takes to get things to work, it's just a docs issue. That's just another one of the things Finnman would have to address with his thesis CMOD docs for us, right? :-)
And for those of you that have not yet heard about Andreas Finnman, he is just about to start on a Master's thesis, entitled "Analysis and Documentation of the Pike C Module APIs", which, besides writing some docs for CMOD (and possibly or probably also the old C module API), will result in a glue for bzip2, similar to the Gz module.
