2016-07-21Revert e5dfc5e8e("Move README to markdown")Pranith Kumar1-0/+107
checkpatch.pl and other scripts fail without README. Revert the rename for now; we may add README.md as a symlink later. This reverts commit e5dfc5e8e715c572aea44ac4d96c43941d4741c7.

2016-07-19Move README to markdownPranith Kumar1-107/+0
Move the README file to markdown so that it makes the github page look prettier. I know that github repo is a mirror and not the official repo, but I think it doesn't hurt to have it in markdown format.

2015-10-13README: fill out some useful quickstart informationDaniel P. Berrange1-2/+106
The README file is usually the first thing consulted when a user or developer obtains a copy of the QEMU source. The current QEMU README is lacking immediately useful information and so not very friendly for first time encounters. It either redirects users to qemu-doc.html (which does not exist until they've actually compiled QEMU), or the website (which assumes the user has convenient internet access at time of reading). This fills out the README file as simple quick-start guide on the topics of building source, submitting patches, licensing and how to contact the QEMU community. It does not intend to be comprehensive, instead referring people to an appropriate web page to obtain more detailed information. The intent is to give users quick guidance to get them going in the right direction. Signed-off-by: Daniel P.

2013-10-11Use qemu-project.org domain nameStefan Hajnoczi1-1/+1
qemu.org is held by a third-party and no core community contributor has access to the DNS configuration. This leaves the website exposed to outages due to DNS issues or IP address changes. For example, if the web server IP address needs to change we cannot guarantee qemu.org will point to it! The newer qemu-project.org domain name is owned by Anthony Liguori <anthony@codemonkey.ws>. You can confirm this by querying the whois information. Also note that the #qemu IRC channel topic already references qemu-project.org. Short of having a dedicated legal entity to hold the domain name on behalf of the community, qemu-project.org seems like the safest bet. Let's replace references to qemu.org with qemu-project.org. Note that git-submodule(1) does not detect URL changes. The following commands clear out and re-initialize all submodules to ensure you are using the latest URLs: $ git submodule deinit . # you'll be warned if you have local changes $ rm -rf .git/modules # also clear cached .git/ directories $ git submodule update --init Reviewed-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com> Message-id: 1381495958-8306-1-git-send-email-stefanha@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@amazon.com>
