As you folks have probably noticed, I’ve been working on writing and formatting the read me for Tersus. I may end up changing the format to .md (markdown) so it supports styling and links, etc.
Does anyone have issues with plain text vs a Markdown formatted read me file? Personally, I like the nice formatting Markdown affords us (and it’s supported directly by Github anyway), but I certainly don’t mind maintaining a plain text read me in parallel.
I think Markdown is more than fine. We're expecting users to grab the theme from GitHub anyhow.
I’ll look into converting the read me to .md in the near future.
I’ll be working on this sooner, rather than later. It seems that GitHub arbitrarily changed the styling of plain text files when shown as default Read Me … and the text is way too big now. Fugly.

The existing Read Me file is Elliot’s handiwork for the Starkers theme. Obviously, we need something related to our own version of the theme. Perhaps a quick, generic “what the what” would be fine for the time being.
Also, we should probably nuke the theme’s _READ_ME.txt is favour of the GitHub compatible README file instead … I mean, while we‘re at it.
