It would be desirable to move plugins (such as pog library, character sheet and monster wounds) into their own repos and as individual packages that can be dropped into a plugins folder so that the core gametable doesn't have functionality that is only useful in specific games.
We've made a start on this by trying to decouple where possible, but need to implement a way to package these up and load them at runtime.
I've had a tinker myself a couple of weeks ago and it seems that java class loaders are a pain to write - there must surely be a way to do it cleanly, but I've yet to find one that I understand. I shall take another look with a fresh pair of eyes soon, but feel free @tkjn to give it a go yourself if you like.
