What nightly version does ruma actually work on? #91

@farodin91 asked me to check out #90. As compiles are crazy slow on my machine anyway, I wanted to compile it locally, i.e. not use docker. How do I know which nightly version of Rust to actually use? The Readme says:

Ruma currently requires the nightly version of Rust

but not which date the nightly should be from! ;) I usually look at the .travis.yml next, as it usually lists something like rust: ["nightly-2016-09-21", "stable"] but such such luck.

The docker-compose.yml mentions a rumaio/ruma-dev image with some sha256 hash. Following the link from Docker Hub to Github, I found the https://github.com/ruma/docker-ruma-dev repository. The latest commit is https://github.com/ruma/docker-ruma-dev/commit/15a37d6e762c4549dc4e2526fe63a194af89f0f6 which "[updates] to nightly Rust 2016-08-11."

Guess I've found my answer there. It's compiling with that nightly right now. (Which is why I ahve time to type this right now!)

Anyway, long story short, please write the date of the current nightly somewhere more obvious/easy to find. Thanks!
