Thanks

copyartifacts was built on top of the hard work already done by Adrian Sampson and the larger community on beets. We have also benefited from the work of our contributors.

This plugin was built out of necessity and to scratch an itch. It has gained a bit of attention, so I intend to maintain it where I can, however I doubt I will be able to spend large amount of time on it. Please report any issues you may have and feel free to contribute.
