+Libidn contrib/README -- Notes for the contrib/ subdirectory.
+Copyright (C) 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 Simon Josefsson
+See the end for copying conditions.
+
+The idn-python/ sub-directory contains a Python interface for Libidn,
+contributed by Stephane Bortzmeyer <bortzmeyer@nic.fr>. It is
+licensed under the same licence as Libidn itself. Note that as of
+version 2.3 Python has native IDN support, see
+<http://www.python.org/doc/2.3.2/lib/module-encodings.idna.html>.
+
+The web/ sub-directory contains a online libidn interface in PHP.
+
+The java/ sub-directory builds Java *.class files that implement the
+Libidn API. Note! It is unfinished and left as a proof of concept.
+A developer with knowledge about Java is encouraged to take over it.
+
+The doxygen/ sub-directory builds Doxygen documentation (HTML,
+LaTeX/PDF and MAN). Simply invoke "doxygen" in that directory and it
+should build the documentation.
