+# Overview
+
+Describe the intended usage of this charm and anything unique about how this
+charm relates to others here.
+
+This README will be displayed in the Charm Store, it should be either Markdown
+or RST. Ideal READMEs include instructions on how to use the charm, expected
+usage, and charm features that your audience might be interested in. For an
+example of a well written README check out Hadoop:
+http://jujucharms.com/charms/precise/hadoop
+
+Use this as a Markdown reference if you need help with the formatting of this
+README: http://askubuntu.com/editing-help
+
+This charm provides [service][]. Add a description here of what the service
+itself actually does.
+
+Also remember to check the [icon guidelines][] so that your charm looks good
+in the Juju GUI.
+
+# Usage
+
+Step by step instructions on using the charm:
+
+juju deploy servicename
+
+and so on. If you're providing a web service or something that the end user
+needs to go to, tell them here, especially if you're deploying a service that
+might listen to a non-default port.
+
+You can then browse to http://ip-address to configure the service.
+
+## Scale out Usage
+
+If the charm has any recommendations for running at scale, outline them in
+examples here. For example if you have a memcached relation that improves
+performance, mention it here.
+
+## Known Limitations and Issues
+
+This not only helps users but gives people a place to start if they want to help
+you add features to your charm.
+
+# Configuration
+
+The configuration options will be listed on the charm store, however If you're
+making assumptions or opinionated decisions in the charm (like setting a default
+administrator password), you should detail that here so the user knows how to
+change it immediately, etc.
+
+# Contact Information
+
+Though this will be listed in the charm store itself don't assume a user will
+know that, so include that information here:
+
+## Upstream Project Name
+
+  - Upstream website
+  - Upstream bug tracker
+  - Upstream mailing list or contact information
+  - Feel free to add things if it's useful for users
