Very cool find!
Yeah, it's not entirely obvious what the best way to submit ROMs to MAMEDev are; sorry about that, we should make that easier. One avenue is sending a mail directly to [email protected]* with information about where MAMEDev can find the ROMs online (whether it be a sendspace account, attached to the mail, http, or whatever you prefer).
Another option, since this sounds like a very cool find, is to send me a private message (click on my username on the left and then hit "Send a Private Message") and I'll make sure it gets through to the right people and/or attempt to add it myself.
Thanks for sharing! Andrew
