It’s been a while, I know – this one has been a long time in the making, and brings several changes under the hood, namely a completely new plugin framework. All relevant plugins have been ported, while some others have been replaced by scripts (RDP, SSH etc.).
Even more under the hood, I’ve switched the project over to maven, plus it’s now capable of reproducible builds 🥳
