Contributing
------------
-Patches, and specially, new translations (or updates to th existing) are
-welcome.
+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://git.claws-mail.org.
+
+Translators please read po/README file for details about translations.
-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.
-The 'xx' is your language code (e.g.: 'en' for English, 'fr' for French, etc.)
-and, optionally, 'YY' defines your country variant (e.g.: 'de_CH' for German
-variant in Switzerland). Country should be used only if your translation is
-really specific to that location, otherwise, and specially for new languages,
-try use the generic language (you can always submit a specific one later).
+Bugs
+----
-Once finished you can test your new translation by adding your 'xx' or 'xx_YY'
-code to the LINGUAS variable in Makefile and running make. A new .mo file
-with the same name of your .po file should be created if everything is right.
+You can send bug reports to http://www.thewildbeast.co.uk/claws-mail/bugzilla/
+by selecting the 'clawsker' product.
-To update an existing translation just type 'make xx.pox' or 'make xx_YY.pox'
-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).
+Also directly by mail to me or in the Claws Mail mailing list, but bugzilla
+is the preferred way.
