Congratulation for this release of Alexandria!

I think the codebased of alexandria has matured a lot since the last release!

Maybe the next could be to push for it's inclusion as a default module
of gnome? Why not?

By the way, is there any roadmap for the next release and what you see
as big improvement?

Congratulation!
