About the language files
------------------------

The language files are just plain text files you can modify at your convenience.
Why is this ? Because we want to let you choose whether the localisation is good enough for you and others so that if you happen to find an error you can contact us at : 

locale@strangemasks.com 
	
and submit your finding.

All this because we are strong believers of the open source paradigm when it comes to quality : OPEN = BETTER QUALITY.
A mention there : if the language files are open it is also thanks to Bernd Ritter and the Holarse Team from www.holarse-linuxgaming.de who convinced us that it would be the best way to behave. 
Last but not least our Friend, Mr Laurent Bedubourg from http://labe.me advised us it would be the best way to provide with quality and fast updates.
So all these arguments led to put the files unencrypted :)

That also mean that you can do whatever you want with the game texts. 
Please note that if you happen to make changes, they may be erased would you come to update the game.
Moreover, don't forget that you will have access to all the texts which mean you will have access to information that could spoil your or anybody else's overall gaming experience.

We hope you'll help us improve the language files and find this way of commiting to the game process quite rewarding.
So if you happen to find an error, once again, thank you for contributing at locale@strangemasks.com :)

Last but not least, if you want to propose a new language for the game, please contact us !
Have fun !
