Why another separate README with just 12 lines?

README.md is intended multipath-tools developers.
And README.alua and README.nvme are for sysadmins.

I see no fundamental reason not to merge all READMEs into one,
and create "sysadmin" and "developer" sections.

Martin

README.md is in markdown syntax.
README.alua and README.nvme are plain text, and its content is easier to identify.
Are you running out of inodes? :-)

No, it' about user friendliness. These .txt files are developer-level
documentation, while ALUA and NVMe are topic which are at least as
important to users as for developers. Distributions tend to ship the
READMEs under /usr/share/doc, but to be realistic, how many users still
look there for documentation these days?

Regards,
Martin
