Alternately, you can use this tool to generate one:
http://tools.trepmal.com/wp-readme-generator/

A readme.txt is needed so your plugin will display correctly in our repository, but also so we can make sure you're providing the users with all the information they need before they install your plugin. Our goal with this is to make sure everyone knows what they're installing and what they need to do before they install it. No surprises :)

This is especially important if your plugin is making calls back to your own servers. For the most part, we do not permit offloading of images or code, however in the case where you are providing a service (like Disqus or Akismet or Twitter), we permit it. The catch is you have to actually explain this to the layman in your readme, so they know where data is going.

Please send a link so the completed plugin can be downloaded. Alternately you can reply to this and send a .zip or .rar file. As this is for a new plugin request, please reply within seven days of this email or we will reject your plugin.

Enhance the YouTube videos you embed in your WordPress blog using EmbedPlus. It not only provides the features of YouTube's standard embed, but also extra playback options, relevant user-generated content, and video reactions from communities like Digg and Reddit. Use it to automatically enhance the viewer experience and engagement around the YouTube videos you embed, for free.

Install the plugin and you and your visitors immediately see the following features:

• Video Reactions - Discussions around a video you embed might be happening all over the web. Show them to your visitors right from your blog. We have a growing list of communities that includes Digg, Google+, Reddit, YouTube, and Twitter.
• Timed Annotations - Display captions, links, calls-to-action, etc at a specific time during playback. Use it to link viewers to other articles on your blog or even to a sign up page to follow you.
• Chaptering (custom and social)
• Cropping - Set start and stop times to share just a funny or interesting part.
• Instant Replay
• Looping - Repeat a scene you like or the whole video over and over.
• Slow Motion
• Movable Zoom

...All without having to alter original video content. Please see our home page demo to try some of these features. If you like them, come back here to download the WordPress plugin so that your visitors also see them in your existing and future embeds -- even if you use the the nifty oEmbed method for YouTube.

Finally, we love to share EmbedPlus. If you are a plugin developer and wish to integrate these extra YouTube features with your own plugin, contact us.

Note: If you don't see the extra features on your YouTube embeds, you might have another YouTube-WordPress plugin that needs to be deactivated first.

1. Install the plugin using the plugin installer within WordPress (or, upload the embedplus-for-wordpress folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory)
2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress.
3. YouTube links on their own line will automatically be upgraded into EmbedPlus videos.
4. You can also now begin pasting EmbedPlus shortcodes within your WordPress editor. These shortcodes encapsulate customizations that you might wish to make. A new button in your post editor will appear that will start a wizard to guide you through making these customizations and getting the shortcode (see Screenshots).
5. View plugin settings under Settings > EmbedPlus.
6. Note: If you don't see the extra features on your YouTube embeds, you might have another YouTube-WordPress plugin that needs to be deactivated first.

   An example of a YouTube link that will automatically be upgraded to an EmbedPlus embed (note that it is on its own line). If you don't see the extra features on your YouTube embeds, you might have another YouTube-WordPress plugin that needs to be deactivated first.

2. 

   If you want to customize an embed with extras like your own annotations, calls-to-action, and chapters, just click on the EmbedPlus editor button highlighted above. It will start a wizard within your blog to generate shortcode that captures the customizations. You can then simply paste the code into your blog as shown above.

   Here's another annotation example. It shows that you can add your own links to a video. This one is a call-to-action that links to our MailChimp list signup.
