Changelog v1.9.1:
#Added: official support for MC version 1.20.2 and below.
#Changed: warning message about the lack of a valid implementation to make it more clear that the plugin is trying to use the last valid/updated implementation in this case.
I want to stress out the fact that in many cases the plugin does not need to be updated specifically in order to work properly on future versions - especially if the API did not change drastically (which is usually the case).

Changelog v1.9.0:
#Added: the plugin will now inform you if the latest implementation is used and if so, for what version it was last tested.
#Changed: the warning messages about the lack of a valid implementation was more or less replaced by the above info message.
The plugin already tried to use the default implementation if no valid implementation was found. Therefore I think these changes give some clarity over what is actually happening. In addition future versions will now not be "unvalid" so to speak but rather untested (hence the new info message informing you of the last tested version) because the later versions will very likely work except for new block types for example.
I hope this gives more transparency.

#Added: option cauldron_mechanic.max_stack_size to set a limit how much powder can be transformed at once. If the limit is exceeded it will transform as much as possible with left over water.
#Changed: items thrown in a cauldron will no longer be blocked for merging but instead merged before transformation.

#Changed: messages.wrongCmdUsage.prefix option is now located at messages.wrongCmdUsagePrefix.
#Changed: messages.help.discover option is now located at messages.discover.help.
#Changed: updated commons code to v1.8.0. This massively improves the commands, in particular:
#Removed cauldron_mechanic.call_event.
#Removed config section messages.wrongCmdUsage.
#Removed config section messages.help.
IMPORTANT: This update needs editing of the current config. Please compare the cauldron & messages section with the following and edit it accordingly.
As you can see players will not get punished anymore if they throw items in one by one quickly (i.e. by spamming Q).
I would highly appreciate some more/new ratings because it really keeps me motivated. Thanks in advance!

#Changed: commons code updated to v1.8.0
#Fixed: API version was still 1.13 in plugin.yml.
There are around about 30 servers who use this plugin for a very long time now. A forum like Spigot is all about appreciation for other people because if no one is giving feedback or something like that plugin developers will just stop or charge something for it. So please review the plugin it is really not that much to ask for. For all of you who already rated the plugin: Thank you again it really keeps the motivation going
