 > Wont getting the info from Repo mean loading info of ver2.0 even if the
 user has ver1.0 installed?

 Yes, it would. Personally i'm leaning towards a "Tough luck, upgrade"
 point of view on that one..

 > Wont loading the same from the readme file on the plugin folder be
 better?
 That is the other option, and is much simpler as well, If the file exists,
 we use it, if not, we dont show the link.

 That would however require we bundle a Markdown parser with WordPress.
 Something we've not done since.. 1.x
