We have a few nice adds in this release, notably we now optionally support TOML for all configuration files, and Python 3.11 is officially supported. There is also a new optional mode for passing of **kwargs arguments in callbacks that removes some confusion in how AppDaemon originally implemented its callbacks - there for those that have wanted this for a while! We also have some scheduler fixes as well.
We will also be removing python 3.7 support soon as it goes end of life in a month or two.
- enjoy!
