Hi @michaelzangl I think this plugin should be released during the next package release process. Is that the case @gziolo ?
Unfortunately, there is a time between the package creation/documentation and the release where the documentation is "wrong" maybe we should only merge the documentation update after the packages are released?

To the general issue of documentation being synced to master vs. what's available in stable (published) versions, I'd consider this as sufficiently tracked by:

• https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4244
• Update the documentation manifest to use relative links instead of pointing to "master" explicitely. #14303

This is correct, and described at the following documentation:
