Honeywell Home plugin w/ Hoobs
My Honeywell T5 is HomeKit native but absolutely horrible at keeping a connection with HomeKit. I was hoping to install the Homewell Home plugin but I get an error that states:

The plugin "homebridge-honeywell-home-thermostat" requires a Homebridge version of >=1.2.2 which does not satisfy the current Homebridge version of 1.1.6. You may need to update this plugin (or Homebridge) to a newer version. You may face unexpected issues or stability problems running this plugin.

Is there a technical reason why Hoobs is running an older version of Homebridge?
