+A plugin for showing videos of talks from Debconf, the yearly conference
+of the Debian GNU/Linux distribution, as well as some other Debian-related
+video talks.
+
+Information is taken from the Debconf Video Team's archive metadata:
+https://salsa.debian.org/debconf-video-team/archive-meta
+
+Currently there are two sections:
+* Debconf talks, using the metadata
+* all video.debian.net videos, by name only
+
+The latter include also a number of other talks, e.g. mini-debconfs, but
+lack any other information besides the file name.
+
+
+== Installing
+
+Eventually plugin should be available in standard Kodi repositories. Until
+then, you need to pack it into a zip file (or use an existing zip).
+
+A zip with the plugin could be found at https://kodi.tzafrir.org.il/ .
+Alternatively you can create it on your own (see instructions below).
+
+You then need to:
+1. System -> System Settings -> Addons -> Untrusted Sources (enable)
+ and note that this allows installing addons insecurly from the
+ Internet.
+2. System -> File Manager -> Add source
+ Add either https://kodi.tzafrir.org.il/ or a local directory where you
+ placed the addon zip file in.
+3. Addons -> Install From Repository -> .. -> Install from zip file ->
+ [name of the source you added in previous step] ->
+ plugin.video.debconf-[version].zip
+
+
+== Building Plugin
+
+From git:
+
+ git archive --prefix=plugin.video.debconf/ --format=zip >../plugin.video.debconf.zip
