1.0.0-rc1

1.0.0 is a breaking update to ACA-Py whose version is intended to indicate the
maturity of the implementation. The final 1.0.0 release will be Aries Interop
Profile 2.0-complete, and based on Python 3.7 or higher.

In rc1, there are not a lot of new features, as the focus is on cleanup and
optimization. The biggest is the inclusion with ACA-Py of a universal resolver
interface, allowing an instance to have both local resolvers for some DID
Methods and a call out to an external universal resolver for other DID Methods.
Another significant feature is full support for Hyperledger Indy transaction
endorsement for Authors and Endorsers. A new repo
aries-endorser-service
has been created that is a pre-configured instance of ACA-Py for use as an
Endorser service. While some work has been done on moving the default Python
version beyond 3.6, more work is still to be done on that before the final
v1.0.0 release.

Breaking Changes

As of release candidate 1.0.0-rc1, the only identified breaking change is the
handling of "unrevealed attributes" during verification (see
#1913 for
details). As few implementations of Aries Wallets support unrevealed attributes
in an AnonCreds presentation, this is unlikely to impact any deployments.
