Packaging Crad's ActionList for .NET via NuGet

This post is about packaging Crad's ActionList for .NET via NuGet.

In case you don’t know Crad’s ActionList for .NET, you can refer to this article.

As usual, Microsoft re-invented the wheel and announced NuGet a long time ago. Whether you like it or not, you will have to accept the fact that one day you need to support it. One problem I met is that many old but useful free stuffs are not packed for NuGet, such as Crad’s ActionList for .NET. So I stepped out and forked it on GitHub,

https://github.com/lextm/ActionListWinForms

and then created NuGet packages for it,

https://nuget.org/packages/ActionListWinForms

This serves myself well, as many of my existing open source projects use this control, which dated back to 2007 and 2008.

I hope that I can put more fixes to this library and maintain it for a while.

If you have any patch that would like to share (under CPL 1.0), let me know.
