While we can encourage Theme developers to provide a Plugin readme-standard compliant readme.txt file (and in fact, I do provide such a readme.txt in my own Theme), what you see in the dashboard in your screenshot comes from the API, rather than from core WordPress.<div>

Hi everyone,<br>
<br>
Is there a way to add a little note on the WordPress Updates admin screen under the updates notification for themes listed on the repository? Something like this: <a href="http://tinypic.com/r/ir6r7b/7" target="_blank">http://tinypic.com/r/ir6r7b/7</a><br>
