+# Egon
+
+Egon is a planner for assignments, reading homework and lessons, which could come in handy for students.
+
+---
+
+## Technology
+
+It is written in Python, using Qt4, PyQt, and SQLite.
+
+---
+
+## Progress
+
+### 06.09.08
+
+Egon is now properly translated into Norwegian using Qt Linguist. So now there is only one program, as there should be. egon_no.py is still available, in case of locale trouble.
+
+### 10.08.08
+
+Norsk versjon også tilgjengelig: egonbm.py.
+
+### 18.08.06
+
+It is now as good as finished, and is working properly. Version 1.0.0 is thus released! It is (almost) even save to use (especially if you know how to fix databases manually). There is even an tar.gz, in dist/.
+
+Some icons are on their way, but they are not really necessary. Or, as I meant to say, some icons are on their way as soon as I learn how to draw. Meaning never.
+
+More features are planned, like better exception handling (it works properly unless you write wrong on purpose. The logic behind studies are used as boundaries, and it should thus work fine. But if there suddenly are multiple 'Assignment 2' given in one course, there is trouble coming.) A printing function is also planned. After all, I do have a proper icon for it. I also mean to translate it, I just need to figure out Qt Linguist first.
+
+The license will also be added. It's GPL.
