Requirements:

=== 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:
   a. Run this small script to fetch the files from the main server:
        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
   b. Build them on your own. This requires libgettext-ruby-util, potool, and make to be installed.
        sudo aptitude install gettext 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:
     sudo a2enmod auth_digest
6. In order to get atom-feed support you need ruby-ratom to be installed. E.g.:
     sudo aptitude install rubygems ruby-dev libxml2-dev zlib1g-dev
     sudo gem install ratom
7. for RUBY 1.9 you need to add 
   	SetEnv RUBYLIB $DUDLE_INSTALLATION_PATH
   to your .htaccess
8. to make titles with umlauts working you need to set the encoding e.g. by adding
        SetEnv RUBYOPT "-E UTF-8:UTF-8"
   to your .htaccess
9. It might be the case, that you have to set some additional Variables in your .htaccess:
   	SetEnv GIT_AUTHOR_NAME="http user"
    SetEnv GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL=foo@example.org
    SetEnv GIT_COMMITTER_NAME="$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…
     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.:
     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.:
	export DUDLE_POEDIT_AUTO=fr
	bzr pull
	make # will launch poedit if new french strings are to be translated
