+tox 1.0: the rapid multi-python test automatizer
+===========================================================================
+
+I am happy to announce tox 1.0.  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
+
+Docs and examples are at:
+
+    http://tox.rtfd.com
+
+Installation:
+
+    pip install -U 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

+- fix issue22: require virtualenv-1.6.1, obsoleting virtualenv5 (thanks Jannis Leidel)

+- toxbootstrap.py (used by jenkins build slaves) now follows the latest release of virtualenv
+- fix issue20: document format of URLs for specifying dependencies
+- fix issue19: substitute Hudson for Jenkins everywhere following the renaming
+  of the project.  NOTE: if you used the special [tox:hudson]
+  section it will now need to be named [tox:jenkins].
+- fix issue 23 / apply some ReST fixes
+- change the positional argument specifier to use {posargs:} syntax and
+  fix issues #15 and #10 by refining the argument parsing method (Chris Rose)
+- remove use of inipkg lazy importing logic -
+  the namespace/imports are anyway very small with tox.
+- fix a fspath related assertion to work with debian installs which uses
+  symlinks
+- show path of the underlying virtualenv invocation and bootstrap
+  virtualenv.py into a working subdir
+- added a CONTRIBUTORS file
