# plugin readme file

 * Hi,
 * I’ve created a new plugin, and created a readme file – however, it doesn’t seem
   to be being picked up and none of the fields and descriptions i’ve written (including
   the all important installation section) aren’t there!
 * I’ve validated my readme file and it says that it was ok, am i missing something?
 * I’ve placed the readme file in both the top level of the repository and in the
   trunk.
 * Any help would be greatly appreciated!
 * Thanks,
    Rich
