That is possible? Didn't know that until now :o)
Since I pretty much copy-pasted the configuration from the mail-page mojo,
it could be that it's already possible. But I'll have a look. Shouldn't be
to hard to accomplish if we already provide that functionality for the
download page.

Anyway, the idea was to put only the most essential information into
README.md and point people to the project's website, since I don't think we
should duplicate the information from the website in README.md...
