+1 (binding) to the release.

Minor items (fix next release):

* R-package/ directory is empty (needs removing as confusing, or a README
could be added explaining the code is not present and can be found outside
of Apache).
* Agreed with Justin that there needs to be a Getting Started text file of
some kind. This could be a link from the README.md to the docs/get_started
directory perhaps; though .md format isn't the easiest to read (ie: link to
website and over time we should consider whether a local version is needed).
* CONTRIBUTORS.md calls the project DMLC/MXNet.
* The NEWS.md refers to 0.11.0-rc3 as the latest version. This should refer
to the version being released rather than the rc3.
* The README.md also refers to rc3. It shouldn't refer to rc3 as a release,
and ideally it would refer to 0.11.0 as a release (though tricky to be
forward looking given that GitHub treats that as a homepage). Randomly
noting that the What's New should be dated.
* The README.md refers to the copyright being owned by Contributors. Needs
updating to a license statement (with NOTICE handling the copyright side of
things).

There's a lot of continual cleanup to do here; but given that this is a
project that has previously been released (pre-apache), and many of these
items are an issue in the old version (ie: existing users have already
dealt with things like no direct link from download to how to get
started/build etc), I don't see anything blocking.
