+This directory contains our fork of libwpg-0.1.3.
+
+We decided to fork this library for the following reasons.
+
+- no need for users to install 2 librarys only for using the WPG import plugin
+- Development of libwpg seems to have stopped (no committ in the past 7 Months)
+- we can tailor the library to our specific needs
+- already added a lot of features and corrections, which result in some
+  incompatible API changes.
