This is surely an accident. I think LF alone would be even better.

Subject: [Cs-dev] strange line endings

I'm about to add a small requirements section to the readme file to flag 
  the Python requirement, and I noticed that the file has a strange 
pattern of line endings: "CR CR LF".  Seems that this is neither fish 
nor fowl. Does anyone know of a historical reason for this, or can I 
change to "CR LF"?

In general, I agree, but that will be a problem when the installer opens 
it in Notepad, which is not smart enough to display that format 
properly.  I've noticed that some software distributions have two readme 
files: README (just LF, no extension) and README.txt (CR/LF), so maybe 
I'll just go that.  The build could easily generate one from the other, 
so there's only one file checked in.
