Faker 1.1 was just released

Faker, the random data generator for PHP, has recently received some press coverage thanks to a simple tweet from Smashing Magazine. This brought a lot of traffic and attention to the library, and it became urgent to release a new version. So here it is: version 1.1 packs all bugfixes and enhancements since the original 1.0 release 4 months ago.
