2016-06-09doc: update links to HTTPS sites in INSTALL and README
Thanks to Let's Encrypt and getssl, we can afford to have HTTPS for our own hosting, and www.gnu.org has been accessible over HTTPS for a long while. While we're at it, update the copyright years, too.

2016-02-12README: fix broken link to dc-dlvr-spam-flow
Reported-by: Jordi Bunster <jordi@bunster.org>
2016-02-01doc: misc cleanups and whitespace additions
Add a few newlines for readability (perhaps at the expense of economy). Stop mentioning "Open Source" as it is redundant and "Free Software" fits our goals, better.
2016-01-04misc doc updates
Strongly emphasize decentralization, as that was actually the main impetus for my interest in git.
2015-12-26doc: minor updates to trim down the README
We'll continue developing and supporting ssoma, but it's unlikely to gain much adoption in its current form; so stop cluttering up our own README with it.
2015-10-05README: add OpenSSL exception
Network connections may use OpenSSL for TLS (as other libraries, such as GNUTLS do not appear well-supported under Perl). So give this exception in case somebody needs TLS support for NNTP.
2015-09-30README: document NNTP access
That's right, we now have our NNTP server running and are self-hosting a read-only news gateway at: nntp://news.public-inbox.org/inbox.comp.mail.public-inbox.meta
2015-09-06update copyright headers and email addresses
In the future, it should be possible to use this: git ls-files | UPDATE_COPYRIGHT_HOLDER='all contributors' \ UPDATE_COPYRIGHT_USE_INTERVALS=2 \ xargs /path/to/gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
2015-08-20misc documentation updates
Threading in Xapian is mostly supported by now; so start documenting things.
2014-07-02doc: remove HTML
Even with txt2pre, the maintenance/discoverability burden is too high and lynx still uses too much memory. Unfortunately, we'll have to keep our INSTALL.html for a while longer on the server since it's linked, but not index.html!
2014-05-30README: reflow and expand initial introduction a bit
Marketing is hard!
2014-04-21README: add links to try and HTML archives
2014-04-21README: fix URL for source code clone
This is an 80x24.org project (more on that at another date).

2014-04-19various documentation updates
We have an HTML homepage, OMG!
2014-04-14doc: fold philosophy into the README
Hopefully this makes the scope and intent of the project clearer.
2014-04-14rename list from "bugs" to "meta"
"bugs" might confuse and limit the discussion, so "meta" it is!
2014-04-08doc: various cleanups all around
Most notably, the INSTALL is geared towards potential server admins, whereas the README is also for interested "drive-by" readers.
