Notice

This is the very first release of Clapper to support Windows OS. To make usage there easier, Clapper repo provides a Windows installer executable built with GitHub actions (also attached in the release note files). Just unpack and run setup like any other app. First startup on Windows after install might take a while, please be patient ;-)

This release also introduces a brand new libpeas based plugin system for the Clapper library. The idea is to enhance it with new capabilities that do stuff outside of GStreamer scope of things. To avoid confusion with term plugins that GStreamer uses, I am gonna call these "enhancers" instead. It will be expanded in the future.
