How do you upload a measure to BCL?

You have a folder in ~\OpenStudio\Measures with at least an xml file and a ruby script, potentially some resources and unit testing.

How do you upload that to BCL cleanly?

Isn't the idea that you upload a .zip of your folder and BCL takes the .xml info to create the "Title", "Description" etc?

Should the zip have a subfolder of the measure or directly the .rb and .xml file? Should you respect any kind of naming conventions?

It seems that this never works when I try to "Upload a Measure" and I end up using "Create a Measure", which is too time consuming and the reason why I have dozens of measures I have never uploaded to BCL.
