- Suggest using Github for reporting bugs and pull requests instead of sending them by email.
- Use https:// instead of http://
- Mention universal-ctags as a maintained version of ctags in geanyctags README
I still get patches by email from time to time which is slightly archaic.

Given the last release of ectags was 2009 it seems better to not mention it. Uctags has 15 years of improvement and makes Windows and mac binaries.

Good point, I've updated this section. I kept the information about ctags though so people know what the difference between ctags and universal ctags is (I think distributions still package the unmaintained ctags).

Maybe mention that the github username can usually be found in the MAINTAINERS file.

I'll probably skip this level of indirection and mention it directly in the documentation. I normally check geany-plugins only from time to time but I have an email notification enabled when someone mentions me.
