The release scripts automatically add the final README.txt based on the website's release notes, so it doesn't really matter what it says in subversion and it should be fine to change it to make clear that it's just a placeholder. Daniel

Why can't this file be removed in SVN, then? - Volodya

It's used for cmake. I don't know if it's still required. But it's nice to have a placeholder in case anyone links to it. Daniel

If it's needed, I think that the contents should be replaced with something like "The contents of this file are automatically generated" instead of outdated data. My 0.02$ Philippe
