You can send raw MIDI data with amidi, or play entire .mid files with
aplaymidi.

To see received data, use amidi or aseqdump.

Just publish them somewhere.

Post the patches against the latest Hg tree here.

The alsa-kernel tree contains an almost exact copy of the sound/
directory in the Linux kernel tree.

The alsa-driver tree contains the build mechanism for the separate
alsa-driver package, patches and compatibility code to make the code
in alsa-kernel work with older kernels, and some drivers that are too
new or too horrible to allow them into the kernel.

https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/wiki/wikka.php?wakka=SourceCodeRepository
and see the Hg docs.
