After 15 months of great service and more than 11700 downloads, it's time 
for v4.2.3 to bow out and live a new life among the deprecated releases.

If you did not follow the beta phase, here's what's new in ACRA 4.3.0:
  * cleaned, more stable code base, reducing reports duplicates (thanks to 
William Ferguson)
  * new experimental and long awaited *direct dialog* interaction mode, 
*without 
notifications* (thanks to Julia Segal)
  * full *runtime configuration API*, required for projects using Android 
Library Projects since ADT14, and very handy for developers in need of 
dynamic ACRA configuration.
  * addition of a collector for a custom log file
  * addition of a collector for the details of the broken thread (id, name, 
groupname)
  * addition of a collector for the new MediaCodecList provided in the 
Jelly Bean API

For more details about the changes, read previous posts from the Google+ 
page <https://plus.google.com/118444843928759726538> or the ChangeLog on the 
project wiki <https://code.google.com/p/acra/wiki/ChangeLog>.

If you upgrade from 4.2.3, be aware that the default list of ReportFields 
has changed. You would better create a new spreadsheet & form with the help 
of the doc/CrashReports-Template.csv or use 
@ReportsCrashes(customReportContent={...}) to redefine your own list of 
fields

Thanks a lot to everyone for testing during these 3 weeks of Beta (with 
special thanks to Nikolay Elenkov  for his feedback on the dynamic 
configuration API), the 3 successive beta releases have reached 397 
downloads on googlecode, not including Maven downloads. There were very few 
reports during the Beta, a proof that you can rely on this new version even 
more than you could rely on the previous.

About Maven. *ACRA is now available on Maven Central*, with 4.2.3 and 4.3.0 
stable releases available on the central repository. Just note these IDs: 
groupId *ch.acra / *artifactId *acra*.

If you think there are missing parts in the documentation, please open an 
issue.
