So I'm just about finished with this new tag library. There are a few more tests I'd like to write, but I believe it's code-complete.
What is the process for adding this to the project? Who makes the final decision as to whether this should even be included in the project? How do releases get managed? Does the build currently run with the 1.5 SDK? Obviously I'm new at this.
