Include README, ChangeLog, etc. in downloads
Reported by Jacek Antonelli | November 30th, 2008 @ 03:43 AM | in 1.0.0 Release
The download packages should include some of the project information text files:
- README.txt
- LICENSE.txt (needs to be added; text of the GPL)
- ChangeLog.txt
- RELEASE_NOTES.txt (needs to be written)
- MANIFESTO.txt (maybe)
- CONTRIBUTE.txt (maybe)
For Windows and Linux, they should be installed in the application directory. For Mac, they should be put in the disk image, I think.

Doing this manually for RC2, but I'm going to try to mod the viewer_manifest to do it automatically for 1.0.0

(Hi balp, thanks for the effort, but I had already 90% finished it myself.)
Marking this as done. It works on Linux. Not sure about Windows or Mac, but the packaging process for those platforms isn't as automated, so it's not a big deal. (It should be making a doc/ directory somewhere.)

I'm pretty sure it's working on windows, but mac ... Not sure, it was a few minutes work already, I knew the viewer_manifest file from my Balp Builds.
