Omni Core v0.4.0 released

[dexx]

Dear Omni Layer integrators and developers,

we released Omni Core v0.4.0.

v0.4.0 is a major release and consensus critical in terms of the Omni Layer protocol rules. An upgrade is mandatory and highly recommended.

During startup the database is checked for consistency issues. If an inconsistency is found, all Omni Layer transactions are reprocessed. Depending on the hardware, this process can take several hours. While no issues are expected during this upgrade, it is crucial to also refresh overlay systems (e.g. balance caches for user accounts), if such a rescan is triggered.

Before updating Omni Core, you can manually perform a consistency check to ensure a proper startup. Please follow this instruction:
