Has any movement been made on the ability to add broctl plugins into bro plugins? I know we talked about it a few times, and it's sort of becoming necessary are more packet source plugins are showing up in the bro-plugins repository.

I reopened this ticket since it looks like it was wrongly closed.

Oh, I looked for a commit that implements this and couldn't find it. Adam didn't seem to indicate that the work had been done when he closed it either so I thought it might have been a mistake.
