-TODO:
-* put SIM applet here, based on https://git.osmocom.org/sim/hello-stk
+# Hello World SIM Toolkit Program
+
+This is the source code to a very simple *Hello World* Java SIM Toolkit
+application.  You typically install it using the tools from the
+<http://git.osmocom.org/sim/sim-tools/> repository.
