Developer service

.c and .h templates

When developers need to add new file, then they need some template. Looking at existing source files could be confusing, because each file contains different copyright in header. When you edit some file, don't foreget to add your name to list of contributors, write description of source file, write name of .h file containing function prototypes somewhere at the beggining of .c file, write commentary, write documentation in wiki.
