+<!--## Changes to the core application
 
 Currently the core app is source available and proprietary.
 Changes have to be well thought out, since they often have unwanted side effects.
 Lots of additions had to be reverted in the past. 
 I learned my lessons and will not merge contributions carelessly.
 Probably you will not have fun matching my standards of defensive code.
 If you still want to work on the core, be sure to get in touch with me _before_ starting.

 ## Translations
 
 Albert and the native plugins are fully internationalized.
 Unfortunately there is no streamlined localization flow yet. 
 Currently the translations go directly into the (sub)projects.
 So you have to commit to each plugin separately.
-Future plan is to have a separate repository for the translations.

 ## Documentation
 
 Each page on the website contains an _'Edit this page on GitHub'_ link in the footer that you can use to send improvements.
 The API reference is generated from source code, in particular the header files of the public API.
 To improve the API reference, send a pull request with the changes to the header files in the `include` directory in the [Albert repository](https://github.com/albertlauncher/albert/tree/main/include/albert).
