Sure we can start preparing for this whenever you're ready.
Why not? I didn't realize that there is some updates till I have issues.
So, any plan for that. I put reminder to my phone and check every month if there is an update. It doesn't make sense :)
Sorry for the inconveniences, we're still reviewing the best way we can use for deploying the plugin.
This would be nice. Currently the plugin has no way of notifying you that an update exists, let alone being able to update it from the backend.
The only way to update is to add the new plugin file from GitHub, but that then wipes all the settings from the previous version.

We're still reviewing the plugin and may retire it in favor of another method that does not require you to install or manage it manually, as it would be manged/updated automatically from the WordPress install but there are no time line for the release date now.
Currently, updating the an old version of the plugin does not wipe the data from the database. Data from the plugin is only removed when the plugin is uninstalled.
It feels like this would be a lot more useful, and automatically support upgrades when needed, if this was deployed to the WordPress.org plugins repository over a link to a zip on dropbox.
I've used this GitHub action in the past to handle automatic deploys to .org -- https://github.com/10up/action-wordpress-plugin-deploy -- and would be delighted to help out with a PR to manage it.
