Release-Management Question about New API Plug-in

2016-06-15 Thread Tutkowski, Mike
Hi, This is mainly a release-management question, but - of course - anyone who knows, please feel free to comment. I have been developing a new API plug-in for a customer. The customer is using CloudStack 4.6. I'd like to contribute the plug-in to our official repo, but I'm wondering if I
