+Crash-course of padre Debian package maintenance
+================================================
+
+Patches
+-------
+
+Changes in upstream sources are handled as a series of patches,
+managed with quilt.
+
+See /usr/share/doc/quilt/README.source for a brief instruction for
+working with quilt.
+
+
+Upstream source is repackaged
+------------------------------
+
+This is because eg/hangman.p6 is a publication in use.perl.org,
+subject to copyrightt and there is no license attached to it, i.e. it
+is not distributable.
+
+Since we are repackaging, the compiled .mo files in share/locale are
+removed too.
+
+Importing new upstream releases
+-------------------------------
+
+1) download the tarball
+
+    uscan -f
+
+2) import/merge into master
+
+    git-import-orig ../padre_$VER.orig.tar.gz
+
+3) review the diff, adjust, whatever
