Update readme.txt

[johnjamesjacoby]

Let's do the standard readme.txt sweep before 2.2 goes out.

• Anything we want to change?
• Anything we want to remove?
• Any words or terminology we no longer think applies?
• How do we feel about tone?
• How are our screen shots looking?
• Are there any videos out there worth linking to?

Tested up to: 4.1

WordPress 4.1.1 will be released like starting next week (seems @nacin said somewhere, not sure though).

What versions of WordPress does BuddyPress support?

Currently it's 3.6: Requires at least: 3.6, nothing explicitly comes to mind requiring the bump in required version, except for an opportunity to remove a or a couple of older versions (3.7 & 3.8) from Travis CI speeding up CI reporting.

With Tested up to: 4.1 this includes minor releases such as v4.1.1 AFAIK.

Not quite the readme but closely related, update Author URI: http://buddypress.org/community/members/ to a valid URL, the current URL http://buddypress.org/community/members/ is not valid and redirects to ​http://buddypress.org:

Two instances:

• ​https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/bp-loader.php
• ​https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/src/bp-loader.php

I'd selfishly like to bump this for these reasons, but I think a few others see it as a badge of honor. Let's revisit this in 2.3.

In 9432:

Update readme.txt for 2.2's imminent release:

• Clearer installation instructions
• More detailed activation instructions & setup
• Update description paragraphs (based on recent bbPress improvements)
• Inviting tone
• Refreshing new fragrance
• Pairs well with dark chocolate
• Wash, rinse, repeat. Always repeat.

Fixes #6174.

In 9433:

Fix editorial snafoo from r9432, and add a Q&A about "how BuddyPress makes money." See #6174.

I agree with this, it is an honour, and I am selfish also!

P.s. For reference, WP 3.6 was only removed from the Travis CI testing as it was going to be to complex to configure the pre and post switch to WordPress' new "develop" repo with /src and /build folders, see r8017.
