+# Remote Settings Initial Data
+
+In order to reduce the amount of data to be downloaded on first synchronization,
+a JSON dump from the records present on the remote server can be shipped with the
+release.
+
+A bot will update the files automatically. For collections that should not be kept
+in sync, put the JSON dumps in ../static-dumps/ instead.
+
+Dumps from dumps/ and static-dumps/ are packaged into the same resource path,
+thus looking the same to the client code and also implying that filenames must
+be unique between the two directories.
