1) Usually packages are built with shared libraries when being installed onto a system. I recommend you do some reading on CMake Tutorials in general.
To contribute code back to the community there's a Contributing link on the home page www.ros.org
And from that you specifically want to look at http://ros.org/wiki/rosdistro/Tutorials/Indexing%20Your%20ROS%20Repository%20for%20Documentation%20Generation for releasing.
2) The released source is built into binary debian packages on a buildfarm and then stored in apt repositories. The web interface for the buildfarm is at http://jenkins.ros.org and the packages are hosted at http://packages.ros.org
