It is only a (controversial) recommendation and I never wanted to make
it a guideline. But in most of the case the file is not fedora specific,
In many cases such READMEs are not distro-specific, either.
it is pâckage specific so I think it should be reflected in the name.
Well, I find README.Dist or README.rpm to be more confusing than
helpful.
I prefer README.fedora, README.Fedora or README.first.
