Just regrouping on this: it is a bit weird, but these comments are supposed identical to the markdown document. I put them in the markdown document just because it's nice to have up-to-date documentation. That said, empirically we know the Stout README doesn't get a lot of traffic anyway, so I think this really ends up being mostly a technicality, unfortunately. - Alex ----------------------------------------------------------- This is an automatically generated e-mail.
