Do not panic
Building and maintaining Debian packages is not a trivial job and it is a big time consumer so we are trying to economize our resources as usual.
We have been informed about more people writing apps for OpenPlotter and we have realized that we need to make developers completely autonomous
Currently apps developers depend on us to add its apps to the list, create packages and upload them to the openplotter repository to be maintained. On the next version of openplotter-settings (and last before the official release), developers will be able to create packages on its own, use their preferred repositories (sources) and store their apps in their sites. After any of theses external apps is installed, it will be added to the list of apps as usual and it will work as any openplotter core app.
I have sent the first required changes to Thomas for MCS app, new pull requests and instructions will be sent this week.
