README.md

Create or update README.md files for all frameworks (ordinary Markdown, not GitHub's extension, although if you have to you can get away with Doxygen's extensions). Ensure they contain at least the following:

# @FrameworkName@

@One-line summary@

## Introduction

@Description of the framework@

## Links

- Home page: <https//projects.kde.org/projects/frameworks/@framework_name@
- Mailing list: <https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-frameworks-devel>
- IRC channel: #kde-devel on Freenode
- Git repository: <https://projects.kde.org/projects/frameworks/@framework_name@/repository>

Aim to tell people who know nothing about the framework what it aims to do (and why they should use it) in the Introduction section. Add other sections if there is other important information they should know (including examples if you think that would be helpful). You might want to highlight the most important classes, utilities or CMake macros. Try not to make it too long though (if the file is much over 50 lines, consider whether some of the information belongs somewhere else).

If you can get someone not particularly familiar with the framework to help write the README.md file, even better - they are more likely to spot what information is useful.

Try to keep the width within 80 characters for most of the file (although long links, like the repository one at the end, may break that).

See karchive for an example README.md file that I (Alex Merry) consider a good example.
