Comment (by karandesai-96):

 Replying to [comment:16 tmonteil]:
 I was notified about this in the mailing list, that the text must be
 readable as a plaintext file too. I agree with you, reformatting the file
 as you say will ensure better readability. This will be rectified within
 next 24 hours ! :-)

 > You should keep in mind that most people will read this file while
 opening the source tarball, not via github, so it has to be readable as a
 (non-markdown) text file as well. In particular, you should indent the
 text so that it is easy to identify/skip some paragraphs, and indent the
 pieces of code even more so that it does not break the reading.
