Nice work! I especially appreciated the emphasis on writing a good README… but I think it's missing the most crucial thing you need on top your README. That's the motivation aka why the project exists at all, why it's better than the alternatives, etc.

I read the Economist on paper to keep up with the world. There are multiple upsides I like about this approach.

- There's only so much to read per week, I can't unhealthily binge news through night. - There's a delay, most of the news are at least a couple of days old when the paper comes. I find it's a calming influence in the hectic world. Also, the reporting tends to be a bit more balanced vs. minute-by-minute live coverage. - It's on paper. There won't be any notification on it. I can throw the paper away, once done with it.

Interesting paper on the subject: Dunn et al. - If money doesn't make you happy, then you probably aren't spending it right http://www.wjh.harvard.edu/~dtg/DUNN%20GILBERT%20&%20WIL...

Comparing efficiency of pre-release software is kind of pointless. Either one might be missing some optimizations that are put in on the final release.
