[ANN] juju-core 1.9.11 has been released

[Antonio Rosales]

For folks interested in trying out Juju-Core 1.9.11 on HP Cloud and
would like to avoid building from source you will need to add a
public-bucket-url:

public-bucket-url:
https://region-a.geo-1.objects.hpcloudsvc.com:443/v1/49578719334052

and ensure you are using "auth-mode: userpass" (the same credentials you
use to log into the HP Cloud Dashboard and use the Nova command line
tools). Keyauth is still in the works[0].

Example HP cloud stanza:
   hp-go:
    type: openstack
    admin-secret: <redacted>
    control-bucket: <redacted>
    public-bucket-url:
https://region-a.geo-1.objects.hpcloudsvc.com:443/v1/49578719334052
    auth-url: https://region-a.geo-1.identity.hpcloudsvc.com:35357/v2.0/
    default-series: precise
    default-image-id: "75845"
    auth-mode: userpass
    # Usually set via the env variable OS_USERNAME, but can be specified
here
    # username: <your username>
    # Usually set via the env variable OS_PASSWORD, but can be specified
here
    # password: <secret>
    # Usually set via the env variable OS_TENANT_NAME, but can be
specified here
    tenant-name: <redacted>
    region: az-1.region-a.geo-1
    default-instance-type: standard.small

Thanks to Ian for helping me with these instructions.
