+Downloading vmm
+===============
+
+Current version
+---------------
+|curr_vers_rel_date|
+|rel_hist|
+
+Download a gzip compressed archive
+----------------------------------
+vmm could be downloaded from the `download page`_ at `SourceForge`_. To
+extract the downloaded archive use ``tar xzf vmm-0.6.0.tar.gz``. This will
+create the new directory :file:`vmm-0.6.0` in the current working directory.
+
+Verify the downloaded archive
+-----------------------------
+If you have downloaded the archive from the download site you can
+optionally verify the integrity_ of this archive.
+In order to verify the integrity of the archive you have to download the
+corresponding signature file (:file:`vmm-0.6.0.tar.gz.sig`) too.
+The signature can be verified using GPG_ or PGP_.
+For example to check the signature of the archive :file:`vmm-0.6.0.tar.gz`
+you can execute this command ``gpg --verify vmm-0.6.0.tar.gz.sig``.
+
+The tarball was signed by Pascal Volk (ID: CEC0904E).
+You can fetch the public key from a key server using the command
+``gpg --recv-keys 0xCEC0904E``.
+
+Get vmm from the Mercurial repository
+-------------------------------------
+To get a tagged clone of the current vmm release from the Mercurial_
+repository use:
+``hg clone http://hg.localdomain.org/vmm/ -r vmm-0.6.0 vmm-0.6.0``.
+This will put the files into the new created directory :file:`vmm-0.6.0`.
+
+When you omit the ``-r vmm-0.6.0`` option, you will get the latest changes
+from the `vmm repository`_. This code may work for you or not.
