Hi, 
I think the readme description might benefit from to a step 0. 
”  New ideas for a feature for xournal, should be posted as a short proposal in 
the mailing list. Thus, Xournal developers will be able to comment whether the 
idea fits within the scope of xournals development strategies.  They might 
further point out to similar already existing feature branches or give other 
useful comments and advices."

This step 0 would help to avoid any frustration in case of a feature rejection 
by the developers. I just started with xournal and my feeling is that 
developers want to keep xournal clean from feature cluttering.  That's OK for 
me, but then I asked before I started to work on a new feature.

Just an idea
