+py.test/pylib 1.1.1: bugfix release, setuptools plugin registration
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+This is a compatibility fixing release of pylib/py.test to work
+better with previous 1.0.x test code bases. It also contains fixes
+and changes to work with `execnet>=1.0.0`_ to provide distributed
+testing and looponfailing testing modes. py-1.1.1 also introduces
+a new mechanism for registering plugins via setuptools.
+
+What is pylib/py.test?
+-----------------------
+
+py.test is an advanced automated testing tool working with
+Python2, Python3 and Jython versions on all major operating
+systems. It has an extensive plugin architecture and can run many
+existing common Python test suites without modification. Moreover,
+it offers some unique features not found in other
+testing tools. See http://pytest.org for more info.
+
+The pylib also contains a localpath and svnpath implementation
+and some developer-oriented command line tools. See
+http://pylib.org for more info.
+
+thanks to all who helped and gave feedback,
+have fun,
