 Plugins
 =======
 
-You can find an example in ``examples/plugins/`` directory.
+Let's Encrypt client supports dynamic discovery of plugins through the
+`setuptools entry points`_. This way you can, for example, create a
+custom implementation of
+`~letsencrypt.client.interfaces.IAuthenticator` or the
+'~letsencrypt.client.interfaces.IInstaller' without having to
+merge it with the core upstream source code. An example is provided in
+``examples/plugins/`` directory.
+
+Please be aware though that as this client is still in a developer-preview
+stage, the API may undergo a few changes. If you believe the plugin will be
+beneficial to the community, please consider submitting a pull request to the
+repo and we will update it with any necessary API changes.
