Announcement: AppDaemon 4.0.7

Hello all,

Today we have a small maintenance release.

Although we try hard to keep support for old devices in the dashboard portion of AppDaemon, sometimes it’s hard when we don’t have access to some of the older devices we are trying to support! In the last release a couple of changes slipped through that caused problems for older devices, and this release is mainly to address that. Here I would like to thank @ReneTode for his tireless work in tracking all of these issues down, and working with some of you in our discord channel to troubleshoot and fix the issues - I dedicate this release to Rene with thanks!

After the last release, we had a question about our versioning strategy, and I have to admit, that we didn’t really have one up until that point. However, now we do! Nothing too exciting here, just a policy that we won’t add breaking changes to point releases, so you should be able to rely on the jump in version number to let you know if you may need to make changes to your config.

Happy automating!

but tracking down the issue that block ipads would have been impossible without the help from digerpro (discord name)
