+tox 1.1: the rapid multi-python test automatizer
+===========================================================================
+
+I am happy to announce tox 1.1, a bug fix release easing some commong
+workflows.  TOX automates tedious test activities driven from a simple
+``tox.ini`` file, including:
+
+* creation and management of different virtualenv environments with
+  different Python interpreters
+* packaging and installing your package into each of them
+* running your test tool of choice, be it nose, py.test or unittest2 or
+  other tools such as "sphinx" doc checks
+* testing dev packages against each other without needing to upload to PyPI
+
+It works well on virtually all Python interpreters that support virtualenv.
+
+Docs and examples are at:
+
+    http://tox.readthedocs.org
+
+Installation:
+
+    pip install -U tox
+
+Note that code hosting and issue tracking has moved from Google to Bitbucket:
+
+    http://bitbucket.org/hpk42/tox
+
+The 1.0 release includes contributions and is based on feedback and
+work from Chris Rose, Ronny Pfannschmidt, Jannis Leidel, Jakob Kaplan-Moss,
+Sridhar Ratnakumar, Carl Meyer and others.  Many thanks!
+
+best,
+Holger Krekel

+CHANGES
+---------------------
+
+- fix issue5 - don't require argparse for python versions that have it
+- fix issue6 - recreate virtualenv if installing dependencies failed
+- fix issue3 - fix example on frontpage
+- fix issue2 - warn if a test command does not come from the test
+  environment
+- fixed/enhanced: except for initial install always call "-U
+  --no-deps" for installing the sdist package to ensure that a package
+  gets upgraded even if its version number did not change. (reported on
+  TIP mailing list and IRC)
+- inline virtualenv.py (1.6.1) script to avoid a number of issues, 
+  particularly failing to install python3 environents from a python2 
+  virtualenv installation.
