+DRAFT FOR TELEMETA 0.3 INSTALLATION
+
+Requirements:
+- Python >= 2.4
+- Mutagen >= 1.11 : http://www.sacredchao.net/quodlibet/wiki/Development/Mutagen
+- Tkinter (named python-tk in Debian)
+
+1 - Checkout Telemeta:
+
+cd ~/my_apps
+svn co http://svn.yomix.org/svn/telemeta/trunk telemeta 
+
+1bis: compile wav2png (need libgd et libsndfile)
+
+1 - Install the development version of the Django framework:
+
+Warning: last know revision that works with Telemeta: 5313
+
+http://www.djangoproject.com
+
+2 - Create a Django project if you haven't already done it:
+
+$ cd ~/my_projects
+$ django-admin startproject mysite
+
+3 - Put a link to telemeta into your Django project:
+
+$ ln -s ~/my_apps/telemeta/telemeta ~/my_projects/mysite/telemeta
+
+OR: add the telemeta path to PYTHONPATH
+
+4 - Create the media and cache directories:
+$ cd mysite
+$ mkdir media cache
+(You might want to place these somewhere else)
+
+5 - Configure Django (settings.py):
+
+Modifiy the following variables:
+
+    DATABASE_*: your database settings (don't forget to create the database if needed)
+    MEDIA_ROOT: absolute path to the media directory you just created
+    INSTALLED_APPS: add 'mysite.telemeta'
+
+Add the following variables:
+
+    TELEMETA_CACHE_DIR: absolute path to the cache directory you just created
+
+    Just paste the two lines below:
+    TELEMETA_EXPORT_CACHE_DIR = TELEMETA_CACHE_DIR + "/export"
+    CACHE_BACKEND = "file://" + TELEMETA_CACHE_DIR + "/data"
+
+6 - Initialize the database:
+
+$ python manage.py syncdb
+
+7 - Configure your urls:
+
+The simplest case is to have telemeta running at public root. To do so, add 
+this url in urls.py :
+
+(r'^', include('telemeta.urls')),
+
+
+
