Apache Cassandra 1.1.1 is released

Apache Cassandra 1.1.1
* add getsstables command to nodetool (CASSANDRA-4199)
* apply parent CF compaction settings to secondary index CFs (CASSANDRA-4280)
* preserve commitlog size cap when recycling segments at startup
(CASSANDRA-4201)

during sudden mass delete operations by yielding a nonzero liveRatio
(CASSANDRA-3741)

the set of sstables we check (CASSANDRA-4116)

(CASSANDRA-3690)
* avoid generating redundant compaction tasks during streaming
(CASSANDRA-4174)
* add -cf option to nodetool snapshot, and takeColumnFamilySnapshot to
StorageService mbean (CASSANDRA-556)

* add column limit to cli (CASSANDRA-3012, 4098)
* clean up and optimize DataOutputBuffer, used by CQL compression and
CompositeType (CASSANDRA-4072)
