+# This 2017.2 HSTDP release is based on Anaconda/Miniconda, Python 3.5
+
+Perform the following steps in your terminal to install the release:
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+For existing Anaconda3 or Miniconda3 installations:
+
+  $ conda create -n hstdp-2017.2 --file http://ssb.stsci.edu/conda/hstdp-2017.2/hstdp-2017.2-linux-py35.0.txt
+
+As bugfixes are announced your existing pipeline software may be updated by issuing the command:
+
+  $ conda update -n hstdp-2017.2 --file http://ssb.stsci.edu/conda/hstdp-2017.2/hstdp-2017.2-linux-py35.%ITERATION.txt
+
+Where %ITERATION is the next incremental version of the environment specification file served from that URL.
+For example, this release's next bugfix update procedure would be:
+
+  $ conda update -n hstdp-2017.2 --file http://ssb.stsci.edu/conda/hstdp-2017.2/hstdp-2017.2-linux-py35.1.txt
+
+
+Updates will not be supplied via external installation add-ons as either tarballs or scripts.
+Also, keep in mind that Conda, the package manager, may prompt you automatically to upgrade packages deemed out of date.
+Some back-end preparation changes have been implemented with this build to align procedures with those used in the JWST build methodology.
+
+A fresh installation of Anaconda3 or Miniconda3 is not required for each HSTDP release. The method described here allows for multiple, entirely segregated pipeline installations.
+
+--------------
+
+If you do need to install conda from scratch:
+
+1. Install Anaconda3 or Miniconda3
+
+For detailed instructions of this step, please visit: http://docs.continuum.io/anaconda/install#linux-install
+
+For Anaconda:
+
+  $ wget https://repo.continuum.io/archive/Anaconda3-4.3.1-Linux-x86_64.sh
+  $ bash Anaconda3-4.3.1-Linux-x86_64.sh
+  $ export PATH=$HOME/anaconda3/bin:$PATH
+
+ For Miniconda (if preferred):
+
+  $ wget https://repo.continuum.io/miniconda/Miniconda3-4.3.11-Linux-x86_64.sh
+  $ bash Miniconda3-4.3.11-Linux-x86_64.sh
+  $ export PATH=$HOME/miniconda3/bin:$PATH
+
+2. Install the pipeline
+
+  $ conda create -n hstdp-2017.2 --file http://ssb.stsci.edu/conda/hstdp-2017.2/hstdp-2017.2-linux-py35.0.txt
+
+3. Enter a BASH shell
+
+  $ bash
+
+4. Activate the pipeline environment
+
+$ source activate hstdp-2017.2
