copy readme.txt to readme.md #9

Closed Pomax closed 9 years ago

Pomax commented 9 years ago

Right now all the instructions are in the readme.txt, with almost nothing in the readme.md, even though github will show the readme.md as the authoritative readme documentation. It's worth either copying the contents of readme.txt to readme.md, or rename the .txt version to .md, so that instructions are immediately visible.

That's Aaron and Microsoft folks' decision...

Pomax commented 9 years ago

@aaronbell, as most people are now going to find this repo, and the README.md is the public face for this codebase, worth doing?

davelab6 commented 9 years ago

I submitted a PR for this i think

Pomax commented 9 years ago

I only see two PRs at the moment, maybe the PR never went through?

HinTak commented 9 years ago

Dave's issue report was against my fork, and I merged and closed it against mine - so the upstream Microsoft parent would inherit it if/when I sign the CLA. Until then, please feel free to file another against upstream... :-).

Pomax commented 9 years ago

ahh, noted. let me close this =)

HinTak commented 9 years ago

Perhaps closed too soon - the earlier discussion about whether I should act as a CLA by-pass applies (though in this case this consideration may be over-cautious), also, when I merged, i did wonder whether this should be dealt with by the Microsoft folks, since their lawyers(!) care more about what goes to the front, so they might still turn it down in the end. For now, it only goes to my front, and I am okay with that.

Pomax commented 9 years ago

same here, that sounds fine.
