In version 1.3.1 of `pytest-timeout` (latest) the setup.py file is not
compatible with python 2.7 and 3+ due to how `open` is called. A patch
has been added that can be removed once a fix and new relase is given.

 - compatible with 2.7 and 3+
 - all test pass.

Fetching from github repository instead of pypi so that all tests can
be run.

 - compatible with 2.7, 3+
 - all tests pass

In order to get all the tests passing the Github repository was
downloaded instead of from pypi so that the `conftest.py` is
available.

In addition to updating the version:

  - compatible with 2.7, 3+ now
  - all tests are running and passing

 - compatible with 2.7, 3+
 - all tests pass and running

The github repository was downloaded instead of the pypi repository
for testing (needed `conftest.py`). Major work was done on the
underlying dependencies to make distributed work on python 2.7,
3+. Note that the test **do** take a significant amount of time (10-15
minutes).

 - moved to `python-modules`
 - compatible with 2.7, 3+
 - all tests pass (previously tests were not run)

 - pytest-timeout: no longer requires patch
 - joblib: was improperly merged with the github merge tool (never
   using again)
