+The setup is similar to the previous.  You should run
+
+./update-po.sh LANG
+
+to update your langauge (where LANG is the language code).  That updates the
+.po file for translations.
+
+The whole thing is translated into HTML which are stored in git, so that we
+don't depend on docbook stuff to build.
+
+./update-xml-to-txt-html.sh
+Does all the conversions and so on, and also runs ./make-makefile-am.sh.
+Really does not need to be run often, really only before distribution I'd say.
+No need to continually update the html files.  This needs to be updated when a
+new language is added: the LANGS="" at the top of the file.
+
+./make-makefile-am.sh
+Since automake is dumb and can't handle having files that I can't predict in
+the distribution.  This needs to be updated when a new language is added: the
+LANGS="" at the top of the file.
+
+To add a new language you just add the subdirectory, generate a .po file fro
+genius.xml with xml2po then add the directory language to the two scripts
+above.  If you add figures, just add the figures subdirectory and the figures
+with same file names as the C ones in there.  The script above will take care
+of adding them to the Makefile.am.
+
+The genius.txt is just autogenerated, and not really used much, it's really
+just a backup, don't worry about it.
+
+Let me know if you have any questions: jirka 5z com or jiri lebl gmail com
