Remove hard coded owner from tests

Was wanting to hack on the project and hit a stumbling block when
running the tests because of the hard coded repo owner. I made some
guesses about the project_test resolution, so feel free to let me know if you'd
like it done another way.

Add note that we require Go 1.1. Closes jingweno/gh:30
