----------------------------------

             Summary: README.txt in distro should be updated
                 Key: MNG-5610
                 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-5610
             Project: Maven 2 & 3
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Artifacts and Repositories, Documentation:  General
    Affects Versions: 3.2.1
         Environment: n/a
            Reporter: Anders Hammar


The README.txt file in the distro contains some text that should be updated/corrected:
{quote}
Windows 2000/XP
{quote}
(There are other quotes as well around different Windows versions.) We should probably just specify Windows.

{quote}
Please see the file called LICENSE.TXT
{quote}
The file is called LICENSE

{quote}
On Windows, Windows NT and above or Cygwin is required for the startup scripts.
{quote}
Very confusing. What are we saying?

Also, the stated link http://maven.apache.org/release-notes.html should be verified if it's the correct one. There was a recent discussion on the dev list around the release notes not being up-to-date.

Any changes should be synced with the http://maven.apache.org/download.html#Installation page as well.
