AutoInvite Plus - Making raid organization effortless

[Gregarius]

Nice work.

You may want to move the features from that Github readme to your OP. I didn't know what this addon did, but I see now it's quite comprehensive. I'd like to try this to see if I like it more than Raid Browser.

awesome work!

- might be useful to add a floating window with buttons for in-combat announcements, would be amazing if it populates from a dedicated "custom macros/announcements" tab in the main addon.

- add /RW button for loot announcements

- add countdown timer for rolling items and chat scanning for rolls

other than that is perfect functionality wise IMHO
