I'm not sure there is an "official" process yet.

Anywhere you want to put it. As long you you mail the list with a link to it's all good.
If you would like to have it the whiteboard area just ask a friendly committer to put it there
for you.

It needs be discussed on list yes, but up to you if you want to label the thread [Proposal]
or not. More people will probably take notice of it if you label it.

The on list discussion should sort all these details out.

What are you having issues with? Anyway I can help?

Up to what the community as a whole to agree on that. Personally I don't see why we should
hold off new features but other people may have other views on that.
Thanks,
