1000x This. I'm really sooo tired of projects being introduced through Github pages which have all kinds of non-descript change-lists and commit SHAs on them but lack even the most fundamental kind of information, like what the heck does it do, especially when there's about 100 other pieces of software out there with the same name. In this case the project does actually have a proper website (which btw. is nowhere mentioned on the Github page). Why not just link to the website instead? Is that somehow not cool enough any more? |

I can't sympathize at all with your sense of exasperation. I know you feel like you are arguing for a cause, but you're also being condescending.
The purpose of this post isn't to introduce a project, but to announce a significant milestone version release. With that in mind, it makes a lot more sense to link to the announcement post on github. It includes plain language descriptions of the changes, download links, plenty of screenshots, and hardly any SHAs. The website is mentioned at the very top of the main github page, as well as in several other places.
