Description of the issue:
Apparently sphinx-using-restructured-text has been decided on for creating documentation. Since this is github, is there a reason github markdown is not being used. Note they are very very similar and markdown is supported natively on github so you don't need things like makefiles to create it and webpages will display both raw and formatted text in a more intuitive way to average user. I would propose:

• using github markdown, or
• an faq explaining why you (whoever you is) decided to make life harder for the average user (yes it's snarky)
