+It is possible to extend SimGrid without modifying its internals by
+attaching code to the existing signals and by adding extra data to the
+simulation objects through extensions. How to do that is not exactly
+documented yet, and you should look for examples in the src/plugins
+directory.
+
+This section documents how the existing plugins can be used. Remember
+that you are very welcome to modify the plugins to fit your needs. It
+should be much easier than modifying the SimGrid kernel.
