This release adds easier half-duplex voice link establishment, the ability to load custom interfaces on Android, and improves overall voice functionality and handling. It also includes the latest versions of RNS, LXMF and LXST with all the improvements from those releases.
To load custom interfaces on Android, make sure you have a plugins directory configured, and place any required interfaces in the interfaces subdirectory. Sideband will then load them on startup.
