Agreed.

I think conceptually README.DELETED should be on the vendor branch --
after all we don't commit the tarball as is. We delete files first and
README.DELETED lists those deletions.

- Having README.DELETED on the vendor branch should make for a better
workflow:

(Peter, any further input on this?)

Yah, it's no big deal but we should reach a conclusion and document the
procedure in development(7) ASAP, holding back Jan's changes because of
this is probably a bit frustrating for him.

FWIW, for the reasons above, I'd prefer keeping the READMEs on the
vendor branch.
