Installation instructions
-------------------------
## Using an archive to create the project

The archive contains all the needed dependencies. This is the recommended installation method if you do
not have a GitHub account that will let you download all the dependencies without limit.

You can find the archive here:
http://www.akeneo.com/download/

Once it has been downloaded and extracted to a directory, you must change the `app/config/parameters.yml`
to suit your configuration, mainly the `database` suffixed parameters.
