Summary

EPICS 3.15 will add a framework for server-side plug-ins.
Clients can add JSON modifiers to channel names, which will instantiate and configure plug-ins on the server, that are inserted into the client's Channel Access connection.
Plug-ins may change update data and meta-data (time stamps, data type, array sizes etc.), and are a very powerful tools to allow client-defined subscriptions.
