 If you want to contribute a translation the following hints
 may be of help to you:
 
-
 Step 1:
-      enter the MusE directory and edit the
-      file "muse.pro"
-
-      Append a new target file name at "TRANSLATIONS"
-      e.g. change
-            TRANSLATIONS = share/locale/muse_de.ts
-      into
-            TRANSLATIONS = share/locale/muse_de.ts \
-               share/locale/muse_fr.ts
-      if you want to generate a french MusE version.
-
-Step 2:
-      start the Qt-Program "lupdate"
-
-            lupdate muse.pro
+      If you want to update an existing translation, skip to step 2.
 
-      Maybe "lupdate" is not in your PATH and you must
-      specify the complete pathname "lupdate"
-      Example:
-            /usr/qt3-2/bin/lupdate muse.pro
+      If you want to do a new translation, start with creating an
+      empty translation file:
 
-      This generates the file "locale/muse_fr.ts".
+            touch share/locale/muse_fr.ts
 
+Step 2:
+      If you want to update an existing translation and you downloaded
+      a stable release (not a snapshot) of MusE, skip to step 3.
+
+      Populate your .ts file with the newest strings
+
+            mkdir build
+            cd build
+            cmake -DUPDATE_TRANSLATIONS=ON ..
+            make translations
+            cmake -DUPDATE_TRANSLATIONS=OFF ..
+            cd ..
+
+      Your file share/locale/muse_fr.ts is now ready for translation. It
+      is recommended that you copy this file to some other place and
+      and work on the copy.
+      
 Step 3:
-      Edit "locale/muse_fr.ts" manually or use the Qt "linguist" tool:
+      Edit "muse_fr.ts" manually or use the Qt "linguist" tool:
 
             linguist muse_fr.ts
 
 Step 4:
      Save the edited file "muse_fr.ts" from linguist and
-     start File->Release. This generates the file "locale/muse_fr.qm"
+     start File->Release. This generates the file "muse_fr.qm".
+     Copy this file into your muse installation folder,
+     <prefix>/share/muse-2.0/locale/
 
       or
 
-      start the Qt program "lrelease"
-
-            lrelease muse.pro
+      Copy your edited "muse_fr.ts" into share/locale in the source tree
+      and rebuild/install muse
 
-      This generates all *.qm files.
+            cd build
+            cmake -DUPDATE_TRANSLATIONS=OFF ..
+            make
+            sudo make install
 
 Step 5:
-      install the *.qm files: as superuser start "make install"
-
-
-Step 6:
       Test:
-            set the environment variable LANG to the desired
-            Language:
-                  export LANG=fr
+            If your system locale is set to the same language as your 
+            translation, simply start MusE:
 
-            Start MusE:
-                  muse
+                  muse2
 
+            Otherwise, start MusE with the desired locale using the -l flag
 
+                  muse2 -l fr
