Yes, I talked to josh-k, one of the Travis  authors on IRC #travis. It has to be .travis.yml in the root of the repo. 

With most projects that use Travis, developers simply fork the project on GitHub and then flip the switch to enable Travis CI for their fork, without ever changing the .travis.yml (unless they are improving the Travis config). In this case, it's harder because I put encrypted SQL Server credentials in the .travis.yml - so if someone tries to run Travis CI builds on a fork with an unchanged .travis.yml, Travis will fail to decrypt the data for a different repo and their build will fail because it won't be able to connect to a SQL Server. Such folks would have to find their own Internet-accessible SQL Server and then modify the .travis.yml in their fork with new encrypted credentials. I'd be pleasantly surprised if that became an issue (people actually wanting to use Travis CI on their forks
 ) :-)

In short, .travis.yml can't be renamed or moved, so if that's the only concern, I'd vote to merge it.
