@pakled: Thanks. There's some useful tips in there.
Commercial/non-commercial use is a good idea to incorporate in a freestuff readme. For a marketplace item it's not necessary, an item bought on the marketplace always can be used for commercial renders.

A file list, like in the readmes of MP items, should be in a freebie readme too.

Reminds me of a demo VBA script I wrote ten years ago - it dissected mail sent by a listserver and put the mail in an organized database. Something similar can be done with readmes, if they follow a certain format. Doesn't even have to be completely structured (the listserver script was clever enough to strip out the ads before storing the info in the database).

Hmm. Nice little side project. A database app that can import a readme, parse the info, and store as much info about the product as possible... Quite hard to make the readme parser sufficiently flexible, now there's a nice programming challenge....

The pen is mightier than the sword. But if you literally want to have some impact, use a typewriter
