+Krusader 1.90.0 "Power Stone"
+=================================
+Well, here we are!
+
+The Krew is finally bringing you the _last_ release of Krusader the
+file manager for the KDE 3.x series. In this release you can expect
+many new Krusader Extensions sent in by our users + bugfixes.
+We would like to thank all of the community for keeping us sharp all these
+years throughout our release cycles.
+
+IMPORTANT: Crashes in Krusader caused by Qt 3.3.5
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+We've been getting a lot of emails and bug reports regarding random
+crashes in Krusader, especially during some file operations (copy/move
+etc.). These crashes are related to Qt 3.3.5 and NOT Krusader.
+It seems that Qt 3.3.5 introduced a serious bug which is now causing
+random crashes in many KDE applications including Konqueror. You can
+google for it to find out more.
+
+As far as we know, Debian and SUSE already posted new Qt binaries that
+fix the problem, and Gentoo has masked Qt 3.3.5 completely.
+As for now, you either need Qt 3.3.4 or a fixed Qt 3.3.5, depending on
+your distribution. For more information is available on our website at
+http://krusader.sourceforge.net/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=1407
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Krusader 1.90.0 contains plenty of changes, bug fixes and updates
+in response to reports and requests from our users.
+Special thanks goes to Václav Juza for testing, debugging and general help!

+
+
+For GUI Translators
+===================
+Translation procedure
+---------------------
+Before we release a stable version of Krusader, we bring out at least
+one beta version. From that moment on there is a feature freeze and only
+bugs will be fixed. This means that translators can update their
+translations for the coming stable. Normally, all the Krusader
+translators will receive an e-mail from Dirk Eschler, to invite you for
+translating Krusader. We will update all foo.po files against
+krusader.pot just before the beta will be released, so that you will
+only have to edit the new foo.po file with Kbabel. This way you don't
+have to worry anymore about how foo.po must be updated. In the past some
+translators updated foo.po in a wrong way, so they translated obsolete
+messages, we want to prevent this, of course.
+
+Use i18n_status and ViewCVS to see the live translation status of
+Krusader!
+http://krusader.sourceforge.net/i18n.php
+http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/krusader/krusader_kde3/po/
+The latest news about the Krusader translations will be in the LATEST
+NEWS section of the "Krusader translation howto".
+
+New translations
+----------------
+If your native language is not listed in VIEWCVS, you will have to
+translate Krusader for your language. Dirk Eschler is the Krusader
+i18n coordinator, please contact him if you intend to translate Krusader
+to your native language.
+
+Krusader translation howto
+--------------------------
+We have a very detailed "Krusader Translation HowTo" if you need some
+help. The latest news about the Krusader translations is in the
+LATEST NEWS section. This allows that even beginners or non-programmers
+can translate Krusader to their native language. Please have a look at
+http://krusader.sourceforge.net/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=389
+
+Quickstart procedure for translators updating existing translations
+-------------------------------------------------------------------
+1.
+Run KDE in your native language.
+
+2.
+Checkout the latest available version of Krusader from CVS. Or if you
+are not familiar with CVS, download the latest Krusader CVS snapshot
+(nightly tarball) from http://krusader.sourceforge.net/cvs.php, and run:
+$ make -f Makefile.cvs
+$ ./configure
+$ make
+$ su -c "make install"
+
+3.
+Translate your foo.po with Kbabel.
+Note: We will update all foo.po files just before the beta will be
+released.
+
+4.
+Compile foo.po, for error checking (from the po directory):
+$ msgfmt foo.po --statistics -c -v --output-file=foo.gmo
+If it reports "xx fuzzy translations" or "xx untranslated messages",
+please return to step 3.
+
+5.
+Run the commands of step 2 to reinstall the new or updated translation.
+Run Krusader and test your native translations.
+If necessary fix the foo.po file (redo steps 3-5).
+
+6.
+If everything is ok, send the updated translation to Dirk Eschler.
