 We recommend sharing your plugins early and often by adding them to the list of known plugins. To list your plugin in the plugin catalog, please submit a PR and update [plugins.yml](./plugins.yml) file to include the plugin's github `organization/repo_name`.
 
+### Plugin Catalog
+
+We provide a list of snap plugins at [snap-telemetry.io](http://snap-telemetry.io/plugins.html) and in [this repo](PLUGIN_CATALOG.md). To include your plugins in our plugin catalog:
+
+* Update [plugins.yml](plugins.yml) file to include a line containing `- org/repo_name`.
+* Our [pluginsync tool](https://github.com/intelsdi-x/snap-pluginsync#update-plugin-metadata) will be executed periodically to update our plugin catalog.
+* [Plugin Metadata](#plugin-metadata) will be scanned and used accordingly when the pluginsync generates the catalog.
+* Please do _not_ make changes directly to [PLUGIN_CATALOG.md](plugin_catalog.md) or the [parsed_plugin_list.js](https://github.com/intelsdi-x/snap/blob/gh-pages/assets/catalog/parsed_plugin_list.js) file.

 ### Plugin Status
 
 While the Snap framework is hardened through tons of testing, **plugins mature at their own pace**. We want our community to share plugins early and update them often. We are defining categories of maturity of a plugin and will roll them out with the resolution of [#1322](https://github.com/intelsdi-x/snap/issues/1322).
