Changes in this release:

Now requires calibre 0.8.57
Store list contents in the calibre database rather than a json file, to allow reuse from different computers (not simultaneously!)
Add a support option to the "Other" tab allowing viewing the plugin data stored in the database
Remove code that supported upgrading from earlier than 1.2.0 of this plugin.

I've got a number of plugin updates that will be released today based around calibre 0.8.57, taking advantage of a new feature to store plugin settings inside the calibre library. The benefit of this is for users that store their library in a shared network location and use calibre from multiple machines (though never at the same time - that limitation hasn't changed!). Your plugin configuration settings which are specific to each library (such as custom column names, book exemptions, reading lists etc) will be automatically kept in sync when calibre is next opened on each machine.

Specifically for this plugin it means that your reading lists will now be stored inside the calibre library, allowing you to make changes/additions or even sync from different computers without losing the integrity of the lists.
