EnvyNG 1.1.0 is now available - please test it

Here is a new release of EnvyNG (which supports only Ubuntu Hardy). EnvyNG 1.1.0 is made up of 3 packages:

* envyng-core (which contains the main program + the textual interface)

* envyng-gtk (which contains the new GTK interface for GNOME, XFCE, etc. users)
