I am very, very proud to say that my team at Microsoft shipped Feature Builder 1.0 - a Power Tool for Visual Studio 2010 which enables developers to create Visual Studio Extensions which incorporate templates, guidance and tools.

This "1.0" release is the work of 6 years of development and organizational journeys I began when I joined Microsoft back in 2004.  It's hard to imagine how complex an organization Microsoft really is, especially when you combine it with complex scenarios built on top of a 10+ year old product (Visual Studio) and it's myriad customer demands.

I hope you'll head over to http://channel9.msdn.com/tags/FeatureBuilder and check out the introductory demos and download the bits for a test drive.
