DimanNe, what Albert is saying is that your report, while factually correct, is
not specific enough to be very helpful.  For example, it mentions at least
three separate problems together.  In the future, please open separate reports
for each of them (unless they are already known).

Now it's great to hear that you are interesting in helping out a little. 
Welcome to Okular development.  It is actually not all that difficult.  Have
you tried building Okular locally already?

The easiest task for you to begin would be to improve the documentation on
stamp handling.  The source code for that documentation is in
doc/index.docbook.

Next you could have a look on why file names need to be in lower-case.  That
smells like a bug to me (but I am no expert).  Is there an existing bug report
for this?  If no, please open one.  Unfortunately, I cannot tell you off-hand
where to look in the code for that problem, but simply grepping for
'annotation', 'stamp' etc should get you a long way.

About not being able to save stamp annotations in pdf files: That is actually
quite an involved problem, and will take a number of steps.  Tobias Deiminger
is the expert here.  It is even a project proposal for the upcoming season of
GSoC:

Maybe you are interested?
