ACRA-4.9.0-RC-1 has been released

[William Ferguson]

Full change log here : https://github.com/ACRA/acra/wiki/ChangeLog

Lots of changes, largely powered by the unstoppable will of https://github.com/F43nd1r

Some of these changes break existing API, so if you been programmatically configuring ACRA then you are likely to need to do some small modifications. But the reasons for the breakages were good.

The change you are most likely to notice is around ACRAConfiguration (which is now immutable) and ACRA.init().

In order to create an ACRAConfiguration you will need to construct a ConfiguraitonBuilder, populate it and then pass it to ACRA#init(Application, ConfigurationBuilder).

Eg 

  final ConfigurationBuilder builder = new ConfigurationBuilder(application)

    .setFoo(foo)

    .setBar(bar);

  ACRA.init(application, builder);

If you have been configuring ACRA using annotation then there is probably not much you need to do.

In any case, there have been enough changes that we consider this release candidate 1.

So feedback is welcome.
