On a separate note, I want to make sure I cut the rc1 correctly.  The notes
said to bump the version number in __unit__.py, but it was already at
v1.1.0.  Was I suppose to bump the version number *from* 1.1.0 in the master
branch, or *to* v1.1.0 in the v1.1.x branch?

Right now, it is 1.1.0 in both branches.
