keymap plugin

I made a simple keymap plugin here: 

https://github.com/jonathanlocke/intellij-easymap-mac

It installs okay and I see the logo (although it is strange that it doesn't appear initially when I install from disk, but appears later), but my keymap under "src/main/resources/keymaps" does not appear in the list of keymaps in the IntelliJ preferences dialog. I've spent a couple hours googling and cannot find an example that explains how to do this. Does anyone have an idea of what I am doing wrong?

Thanks,

     Jon

Your plugin does not expose necessary extension point com.intellij.bundledKeymap to instruct IDE to provide the bundled keymap file. See community/java/java-impl/src/META-INF/JavaPlugin.xml as sample from IJ Community.

Still not seeing it. Does the XML file go in src/main/resources/keymaps if I'm using the IntelliJ plugin template?

For anyone watching this post, I was missing the parent node in the XML file. This works now:

<extensions defaultExtensionNs = "com.intellij">
    <bundledKeymap file = "EasyMap macOS.xml"/>
</extensions>
