 * Hello everyone –
 * I just released a new version of the plugin. It took a while but I think I’ve
   addressed a lot of security issues (including the CVE) and general code style
   type issues.
 * There’s also a new feature – text slides can now have styled text! That one in
   particular was something I’ve wanted for a while. There are some limitations 
   and if you use this you might need to change the CSS if you’re using custom CSS
   for your slides.
 * If you have a dev/beta version of your site, I would appreciate it if you could
   test there before moving to production. I did a lot of testing and it’s stable
   for me but every site is unique and unforeseen issues could pop up. A lot of 
   files were changed for this release but I am confident that it’s in good shape.
 * I intend to focus on the Gutenberg block for the next release but that will involve
   me switching my workflow over to using Gutenberg (of which I am not a fan).
 * Any suggestions for new features are always welcome.
 * Please put your feedback here. I’m looking forward to hearing it!

 * I also want to add that I had to make some changes to the way the Javascripts
   are loaded and it seems snappier now. I’d appreciate your thoughts on that also.
