+****** RPKI Tools Manual ******
+
+This collection of tools implements both the production (CA) and relying party
+(RP) sides of an RPKI environment.
+
+The Subversion repository for the entire project is available for (read-only)
+anonymous access at http://subvert-rpki.hactrn.net/.
+
+If you just want to browse the code you might find the Trac source code browser
+interface more convenient.
+
+***** Download *****
+
+At the moment, the only way to obtain the code is via subversion. At some point
+we should start producing snapshot tarballs.
+
+To download the code, do:
+
+ $ svn checkout http://subvert-rpki.hactrn.net/trunk/
+
+***** Installation *****
+
+See the installation instructions for how to install the code once you've
+downloaded it.
+
+***** Relying Party Tools *****
+
+If you operate routers and want to use RPKI data to help secure them, you
+should look at the relying party tools.
+
+***** CA Tools *****
+
+If you control RPKI resources and need an engine let you request certificates,
+issue ROAs, or issue certificates to other entities, you should look at the CA
+tools.
+
+***** Thanks *****
