 ====== New program versions ======
+When you install a new version of mAirList, it may happen that there are new strings that must be translated. The installer will put a new ''default.pot'' file into the program folder. Your task is to merge that new template into your exisiting translation.
+In order to do so, open your ''mAirList.po'' file in poEdit, then click //Catalogue -> Update from POT file// from the menu. Select the new ''default.pot'' file and click //Open//.
+poEdit will read the new template and add any new strings to your translation (and remove obsolete ones).
+Sometimes poEdit will also make a **suggestion** based on your existing translations; these **fuzzy** translations are marked with a green star in the translation table. You can accept the suggestion by unchecking //Edit -> Translation is fuzzy// in the menu, or pressing ''Ctrl+U''. Or just enter a new one.
+====== Make your translation available to the public ======
+When you have finished a translation for a language that is not yet supported out of the box by mAirList, we will be happy to receive your translation files and included in the official distribution from now on.
+For details please contact us at [[mailto:info@mairlist.com|info@mairlist.com]].
