Thanks for that review. > In the README file, should I be able to click on the links when viewed here? > http://sourceforge.net/p/plplot/plplot/ci/master/tree/ I don't think that is possible with plain text (which we want this file to be for the case when this README file is included, say, in a tarball). According to <http://sourceforge.net/p/forge/documentation/Files-Readme/> raw html is simply escaped for plain text files. Of course, the angle-bracketed style I am using in this README for URL's is not html, but the implication of the SF documentation or readme files is there is not much you can do to make links clickable for plain text files. I also looked at http://sourceforge.net/p/plplot/plplot/ci/master/tree/doc/docbook/ There the URL's in the README file in that directory are not angle-bracketed, but those links are still not clickable indicating my angle brackets in the README file in the top-level directory are not interfering with clickability. Until I looked at that last case (where that directory also includes a file called README.developers which was updated more recently than README in that directory) I was concerned about an implication in the above SF documentation that the latest updated README.* file would be the one displayed. Clearly, from the doc/docbook/README case that rule does not apply to files called exactly "README" so the next time we update one of README.developers, README.release, or README.Release_managers_cookbook in the top-level directory, the README file in that directory should still be displayed at <http://sourceforge.net/p/plplot/plplot/ci/master/tree/> (which is the result we want).
