1. Make sure your code has functionality that is >= Mike's power series code.
2. Make sure your code has 100% doctest coverage.
3. Post a Sage (Mercurial patch) to trac that adds your code, removes
Mike's code, but doesn't break anything else in Sage.
4. Get your code refereed.

There is no a priori special need to do that.  We just don't want to
confuse users/developers with duplicated functionality.
