Albert v0.29.0 released
- Add GitHub plugin
- Next step in making the API more developer friendly
- Move AppQueryHandler into plugin
- Asynchronous plugin loader interface
- Native implementation loads multi threaded (may be serialized by platform linker though). Instantiation happens still in main thread because the existing code is not ready for it.
- Python implementation is threaded entirely (loading and instantiation) however effectively serialized by the GIL.
