Putting them on the web page makes sure that the person downloading will 
see and read the instructions. Putting them in a readme gives no 
assurance that it will be read. Besides, does it really take up much 
space on the page? No harm in having it on the web page, IMO.

Mark,
I don't know if there is a difference between using the application 
uninstall or the control panel uninstall, though from what I've seen the 
general consensus is to preferably use the application uninstall, but 
I've never seen any reason given as to why.
