[chef-dev] Omnibus v4.0.0.rc.1

[Seth Chisamore < >]

Ohai!

I'm very excited to announce the first release candidate of Omnibus 4! Thanks to some awesome testing during the beta period, we were able to fix a number of bugs and add a some missing features. The full Changelog is available on GitHub:

https://github.com/opscode/omnibus/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#v400rc1-september-23-2014

As was reported previously [1], Omnibus 4.0 does not contain the insecure file ownership bug that was uncovered and fixed in the older 3.x and 2.x series of Omnibus.

Please remember:

- This is a pre-release, so it may contain bugs. Please report bugs using the GitHub issue tracker.

- This is a major version release. This means there are non-backwards-compatible API changes in the codebase!

Thanks y'all!
