There is a section in perlhack (perldoc perlhack) entitled "Submitting patches" which contains information geared mainly towards the perl core, some of which is useful for module patches nonetheless. In general, look for the author in the documentation and send patches there. Tk is a bit special, being one of the largest and most complicated perl modules, so you could go directly to Nick, but he is very busy and so I think your best bet would be to send patches and a description of what you have done and why (unless it is obvious from the patch) to the ptk mailing list ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) CCed to the authors. You may want to subscribe to the mailing list if you feel you would like to contribute more to ptk, or if you just want to keep up to date with what's happening.
