+Initial Sample Data
+-------------------
+
+There is an included script which is helpful in setting up some initial sample
+data for use with keystone::
+
+    $ SERVICE_TOKEN=ADMIN tools/with_venv.sh tools/sample_data.sh
+
+Notice it requires a service token read from an environment variable for
+authentication.  The default value "ADMIN" is from the ``admin_token``
+option in the ``[DEFAULT]`` section in ``etc/keystone.conf``.

+Once run, you can see the sample data that has been created by using the
