+Build and installation instructions
+===================================
+
+Prerequisities
+ * Java 5 SDK or later
+ * Maven 2
+
+VLMa uses Maven 2 as a build system. If you are not familiar with this
+tool, have a look at http://maven.apache.org.
+
+To build the project, run the following command from the root folder:
+  % mvn install
+
+Maven will then download VLMa dependencies and compile source code.
+
+Several files named vlmad-${version}-bin (where ${version} is the
+version of VLMa you have built) should have been created under the
+vlma-distribution/target folder. Extract one of them to the folder of
+your choice. The daemon installation is then complete, the main
+executable being available under the bin folder.
+
+For example:
+  % cd /usr/local
+  % tar -xvzf /path/to/vlma-distribution/target/vlmad-${version}-bin.tar.gz
+  % vlmad-${version}/bin/vlmad start
+
+To enable the web interface, you have to deploy the file named vlma.war
+in your favorite servlet container, on the same computer as the one on
+which you launched the daemon.
