+## Requirements
+ * ruby >=1.8
+ * git >=1.6.5 (preferred and default setting) or bzr
+ * libgettext-ruby (for localization)
+ * gettext (for generating localization files)
+ 
+
+ 
+## Installation
+1. Place this application into a directory where cgi-scripts are evaluated.
+2. If you want to change some configuration, state it in the file »config.rb«
+   (see config_sample.rb for help)
+   to start with a default configuration.
+3. The webserver needs the permission to write into the directory 
+4. You need .mo files in order to use localisations. 
+   You have 2 possibilities:
+   1. Run this small script to fetch the files from the main server:
+      ```bash
+      cd $DUDLE_INSTALLATION_PATH
+      for i in locale/??; do
+      	wget -O $i/dudle.mo https://dudle.inf.tu-dresden.de/locale/`basename $i`/dudle.mo
+      done
+      ```
+   2. Build them on your own. This requires gettext, libgettext-ruby-util, potool, and make to be installed.
+      ```bash
+      sudo aptitude install gettect libgettext-ruby-util potool make
+      make
+      ```
+5. In order to let access control work correctly, the webserver needs 
+   auth_digest support. It therefore may help to type:
+   ```bash
+   sudo a2enmod auth_digest
+   ```
+6. In order to get atom-feed support you need ruby-ratom to be installed. E.g.:
+   ```bash
+   sudo aptitude install rubygems ruby-dev libxml2-dev zlib1g-dev
+   sudo gem install ratom
+   ```
+7. for RUBY 1.9 you need to add 
+   ```bash
+   SetEnv RUBYLIB $DUDLE_INSTALLATION_PATH
+   ```
+   to your .htaccess
+8. to make titles with umlauts working you need to set the encoding e.g. by adding
+   ```bash
+   SetEnv RUBYOPT "-E UTF-8:UTF-8"
+   ```
+   to your .htaccess
+9. It might be the case, that you have to set some additional Variables in your .htaccess:
+   	```bash
+    SetEnv GIT_AUTHOR_NAME="http user"
+    SetEnv GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL=foo@example.org
+    SetEnv GIT_COMMITTER_NAME="$GIT_AUTHOR_NAME"
+    SetEnv GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL="$GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL"
+    ```
+10. Try to open http://$YOUR_SERVER/check.cgi to check if your config seems to work.
+ 
+## Pimp your Installation
+ * If you want to create your own Stylesheet, you just have to put it in
+   the folder »$DUDLE_HOME_FOLDER/css/«. Afterwards you may config this one
+   to be the default Stylesheet. Examples can be found here:
+     https://dudle.inf.tu-dresden.de/css/
+   This is a bazaar repository as well, so you may branch it if you want…
+   ```bash
+   cd $DUDLE_HOME_FOLDER/css
+   bzr branch https://dudle.inf.tu-dresden.de/css/ .
+   ```
+   Send me your Stylesheet if you want it to appear at 
+   https://dudle.inf.tu-dresden.de
+ * If you want to extend the functionality you might want to place a file
+   »main.rb« in $DUDLE_HOME_FOLDER/extension/$YOUR_EXTENSION/main.rb
+   Examples can be found here:
+     https://dudle.inf.tu-dresden.de/unstable/extensions/
+     which again are repositories ;--) e.g.:
+     ```bash
+     cd $DUDLE_HOME_FOLDER/dudle/extensions/
+     bzr branch https://dudle.inf.tu-dresden.de/unstable/extensions/10_participate/
+     bzr branch https://dudle.inf.tu-dresden.de/unstable/extensions/symcrypt/
+     ```
+
+## Translators
+If you set $DUDLE_POEDIT_AUTO to your lang, poedit will launch automatically when building the application.
+E.g.:
+```bash
+export DUDLE_POEDIT_AUTO=fr
+bzr pull
+make # will launch poedit if new french strings are to be translated
+```
