+Patches, bug fixes, and specially, new translations (or updates to the
+existing ones) are welcome. Development uses git as VCS and takes place on
+http://github.com/mones/clawsker/.
To create a new translation just change to 'po' directory, copy 'clawsker.pot'
into 'xx.po' or 'xx_YY.po', and fill the empty strings and placeholder values.
and update the new .pox file created, copy the .pox file to the .po file and
test it as above (no need to modify the Makefile this time).

+You can send bug reports on http://github.com/mones/clawsker/issues/ list.
+Also directly by mail to me or in the Claws Mail mailing list, but the Issues
+list is the preferred way.
