Putting it in Documentation/ would add one more outlier file (Along w/ SubmittingPatches and CodingGuidelines). Documentation/technical seems too deep. I've got a patch that incorporates the content into the existing README, but that seems a bit out of place, as the previous content of README was primarily pointers to other docs.

What about a README.developers at the toplevel?
