I just looked over that README, and realized that it was not maintained. I quickly concluded that I do not have the resources to maintain both this file and the HTML file at https://common-lisp.net/project/asdf/, and the latter is what I have been updating with new releases. So the former must go.
FWIW, I took the habit of maintaining only one documentation source (in Texinfo format) and extracting README files and others (such as INSTALL) from there, hence also avoiding the maintenance of duplicate information. It's easy to extract specific chapters from an Info file. For instance, here's a Makefile target that I have in Clon: INSTALL: doc/$(PROJECT)-user.info info --file=./doc/$(PROJECT)-user.info \ -n Installation \ -n Configuration \ -n 'Non-ANSI Features' \ -n 'Supported Platforms' \ --output=$@ perl -pi -e 's/^File:.*\n//g' $@ -- Resistance is futile.
