Addictive Community v0.11.0

Wow! It's been a while since version 0.10 of Addictive Community (yeah, half a year). A lot of commits pending, still some issues to fix... Sorry I'm late, there were a lot of work for me these last few months, I've been busy with my company, putting some projects on the road, but I'm still alive.

Well, here it is! Version 0.11.0 releases all those commits sent by our community, thanks a lot for those who cares about Addictive Community. There's not that much in it, but I don't want to keep these in the dev branch. There's still a lot of ideas that I want to share with you and develop together with you.
