+DATABASE PREREQUESTITES FOR THE API
+------------------------------------------------------
+
+Hermes expects that Kamailio is installed and configured to use MySQL backing,
+with teh Siremis SQL structure, with subscribers in a 'subscribers' table, and
+aliases stored in 'dbaliases'. An SQL structure script for the tables used by
+Hermes is included in doc/sql-data/structure-kamailio.sql That file is included
+as a guide to verify the Kamailio configuration, and as a structure to use in
+development/testing as a replacement for a real Kamailio installation.
+
+Hermes itself requires a MySQL database on the same MySQL server, with the
+structure defined in doc/sql-data/structure-hermes.sql
+A database must be created, and the structure loaded prior to configuring
+the API.
+
+
+You may also choose to load the sample data. Note that the sample data does
+include a R/W API key, tied to the host 10.0.2.5. Replacing the IP
+address of that key may be used to boot-strap authorizations...
