 * Just a heads of from another plugin dev, you can commit changes to the live readme
   without pushing a new version tag. This prevents users updating just so you can
   add a video for instance ;).
 * Update the reamde in /trunk/readme.txt as well as /tags/{current_version}/readme.
   txt then commit.
 * 15 minutes later wordpress.org reflects those changes and nobody has to update.
 * Hope that helps.
