I think there are a few things here.

For specifically being listed on the contributors page, that would be a 
discussion for the contributor committee, as Daniel says 
(contributors@postgresql.org).

For the release notes, that's likely a discussion on -hackers/-docs in 
terms of how we would want to denote that. I know that Peter spends a 
fair bit of time compiling the list of all contributors to a major 
release for the release notes, though we haven't broken out folks on 
their roles in that (outside of who authored a feature).
