pictures of CCD drivers available in INDI webmanager and EKOS profile

I have a MEADE DSI CCD connected to an RPi 3 with the indi software installed.
I am connecting through a laptop running the Windows version of KStars.

I want to connect to the MEADE DSI CCD through EKOS but the driver is not available in EKOS. It should be located between MI CCD (USB) and NIKON DSLR in the dropdown menu; see indi_dsi_ccd.png.
I have confirmed that the driver indi_dsi_ccd is installed on the RPi3 and this can be seen in the INDI webmanager which allows the Meade DSI to be selected in the dropdown menu; see picture indi_dsi_ccd_2.png.

How do i get the DSI drivers available in EKOS?

Two questions:

1. Is it possible to update the indidrivers.xml with the committed changes in Windows without rebuilding from source?
2. It says version 0.1 on the website http://indilib.org/devices/ccds/meade-dsi-pro.html is version 0.3 in the commit correct? Does it matter for the functionality?

1. No, the XML file is actually embedded in KStars for Windows, so you'd have to wait a couple of days until next release.
2. It's 0.3, but that page wasn't updated in a while.

What is the ETA on the next release?
If it is still a while I would try to build from source

Around 4-5 days I think.
