     * to regenerate the README, run **make modules-readme modules=modules/modname**
     * docbook utils and xsl packages are needed for the above command to work

-    another developer who has the required tools installed
-    * if it is a change to README that needs to be backported, make separate

-    likely to rise merge conflicts. With separate commit, that won't be
-    backported, only the commit to xml doc file, then README will be manually
-    regenerated in the corresponding branch.
+    * it is only necessary to modify and commit the xml doc file, the **README**
+    will be regenerated by a automatic script that is executed every few hours
+    * so if you modify an existing module **README** don't commit the changes
+    of this file to the git repository
+    * if you create a new module that includes also a **README file, you
+    need to commit the README to the git repository one time
   * code **should** be formatted with **clang-format** or to match the style of
   the component that the commit applies to. The `.clang-format` file is part of
   Kamailio source code tree, in the root folder.
