oik v1.17 – plugin relocation and oik-plugins server
In oik version 1.17 the child plugins will automatically relocate themselves to become plugins in their own right. At the same time they will be served from the oik-plugins server ( www.oik-plugins.com ) rather than the WordPress repository. Also, their version numbers will be 1.18
There are a number of reasons for doing this, but the main reason is to improve the upgrade process for the plugins; you will have fewer plugins installed/activated so for each update the number of plugins that will need changing will reduce.
