Windows binary: http://u.forre.st/u/scdfiofu/p2pool_win32_0.11.0.zip
Source ZIP: https://github.com/forrestv/p2pool/zipball/0.11.0
Source TAR: https://github.com/forrestv/p2pool/tarball/0.11.0

This release's sole purpose is to test possible fixes to our luck
problems and provide useful data that may also help. It is a mandatory
upgrade because it breaks compatibility with previous releases.

Major changes:
* Broadcast all block solutions, bitcoin/p2pool-stale or not, until
they're 5 blocks old
* Submit blocks over P2P connection to bitcoind, in addition to RPC
* Automatically report caught exceptions as bug reports

This switchover is different from previous ones - Instead of a
scheduled time, all nodes will automatically switch 22 hours after 95%
of the P2Pool hash rate has upgraded. Therefore, please upgrade as
soon as possible so you're not part of the last 5%!

The current proportion of the hash rate upgraded is visible as the "2"
line on the last chart at http://forre.st:9332/static/graphs.html

For anyone who is having problems running 0.11.0 on Windows, here's
0.11.1, which does not use the IOCP API by default:
