README.rst should be ascii. This was fixed in 688f6cc by @tartley, but the latest release, 0.4.4, happened on a side branch that did not include this commit. This will be fixed by releasing a new version. @tartley are you up for it? We should have better tools to automate the release process - maybe this is a chance to test them. |

I was attempting to install a library that uses colorama in a Docker container and discovered that this was causing install failures from pip. I was using Python 3.6. I dug deeper and determined that there are two "·" (dot) characters in the 0.4.4 README.rst that is being read as part of the setup.py. These characters cannot be decoded using 7 bit ASCII. They appear to no longer be present in the master branch, but a new release (or an update to 0.4.4) is likely necessary without these characters.
