The Nova developers have tagged a new 2022.04.05.0 firmware release for Original Helium and RAK/MNTD Hotspots.

This is release instructs RAK/MNTD Hotspots to check RAK's OTA server for new images. Original Helium Hotspots will continue to download their firmware updates from Nova's OTA server.

Once a RAK/MNTD Hotspot downloads and runs this firmware image, it will be managed and supported by RAK. No action is required by Hotspot owners.
