Currently calibre needs to download plugins from calibre server(https://code.calibre-ebook.com/plugins), and that server needs to download plugins from mobiread forum. I was thinking if a plugin has already released on GitHub, it's very convenient if calibre server can fetch the updated plugin directly from GitHub release page. So the plugin developers don't need to edit their posts manually. What do you guys think about this? If more people like this feature, Kovid will consider implement it(https://github.com/kovidgoyal/calibr...mment-44170863).
