PhoneGap-Plugin-Push Version 1.4.0 Has Been Released

The latest release of the PushPlugin is now available on npm. This release is the long awaited release that is fully tested with iOS9. I was able to test on an iPhone 6+ running iOS 8.4.1, iPod Touch running iOS 9.0.2 and an iPad Air 2 running iOS 9.1.0. Please let me know if you run into any problems with this release.

On Android the switch over to using Gradle is now complete. The deprecated gcm.jar has been removed from the plugin and replaced with the Google Play Services GCM framework. Even better news is that PhoneGap Build now supports Gradle builds.

The big feature that people have been clamoring for is background or silent notifications. It is now possible for your 'notification' event handler to run when you app is in the background on iOS and Android (support for Windows coming soon).
