@@ -6,9 +6,22 @@ Nextflow plugin for reading and writing Quilt packages as a FileSystem
 developed by [Quilt Data](https://quiltdata.com/) that enables you read and write directly
 to Quilt packages using `quilt+s3` URIs wherever your Nextflow pipeline currently use `s3` URIs.
 
-In v0.8+, the plugin can even be used with "native" URIs, and it will automatically register a Quilt package at the root of the bucket.
+## NEW: Use nf-quilt plugin with existing S3 URIs
 
-Inspired by the original [`nf-quilt`](https://github.com/nextflow-io/nf-quilt) plugin (v0.2.0) developed by Seqera labs.
+In v0.8+, the plugin can even be used with "native" S3 URIs.  You can continue using your exising S3 URIs,and Nextflow will write the data out as usual.  However, simply by adding the `nf-quilt` plugin, you can also "overlay" that data with a Quilt package containing all the metadata from that run.
+
+For example:
+
+```shell
+nextflow run nf-core/rnaseq -plugins nf-quilt --outdir "s3://quilt-example-bucket/test/nf_quilt_rnaseq"
+# other parameters omitted for brevity
+```
+
+will automatically create the package:
+
+```url
+quilt+s3://quilt-example-bucket#package=test/nf_quilt_rnaseq
+```
