Conflict with Phabricator files

Description

Conflict with Phabricator files

* The developers of Phabricator, the web front-end on dev.gnupg.org
  have not implemented renderers for Markdown, Org-Mode or any other
  common markdown like language.
* They also refuse to do so.
* Instead they re-invented the wheel and implemented their own version
  of Markdown-like thing which is incompatible with everything else.
  It is called Remarkup.
* The developers of Phabricator and Remarkup have refused to provide
  conversion tools to move files to/from any format to/from Remarkup.
* They expect everyone to learn their new favourite pet project.
* Remarkup may or may not display Org Mode files, but if so then it is
  likely to only want to do so as plain text.
* There is an unaffiliated and unofficial project to convert Github
  Markdown to Remarkup via Pandoc.  This might be adapted for our use,
  but requires testing.
* Until then exporting from Org Mode to UTF-8 text is likely the least
  worst plan.
* Which means renaming this file to README.org first.
