 # Generated DOAP In Use
 
-DOAP is used to share informations (metadata) about a software project. Now 
that you have a generated DOAP from POM by the DOAP Plugin, you need to publish 
it.
+DOAP is used to share metadata about a software project. After generating a 
DOAP file from the POM, publish it at a stable URL so that consumers can 
retrieve it.
 
 ## How To Publish A DOAP File
 
-You need to publish it somewhere where the DOAP file will be accessible via an 
HTTP or HTTPS request like a web server or SVN.
+Publish the file somewhere that is accessible over HTTP or HTTPS. A project 
repository, a generated project site, or another web server are all suitable 
locations. The important property is a stable URL that returns the generated 
RDF document; no central DOAP directory is required.
 
 By default, the DOAP Plugin generates the file in the reporting output 
directory (i.e. ${project.reporting.outputDirectory}). So, it will be available 
when you will deploy the Maven site via the 
[`site:deploy`](http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-site-plugin/usage.html) 
goal. See [Integrated DOAP Plugin With The Site 
Plugin](./with-site-plugin.html) part for more information.
 
-# Examples for the Maven DOAP
+If the file is published with the project site, you can advertise it from the 
site's HTML pages with a link such as:
 
-Our Maven DOAP file is share on SVN 
[here](http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/maven-3/trunk/doap_Maven.rdf).
+```html
+<link rel="meta" title="DOAP" href="https://example.org/doap_example.rdf"; 
type="application/rdf+xml">
+```
+
+## How To Share A DOAP File
+
+Share the stable URL with the tools or catalogs that consume DOAP. Check their 
current submission instructions before registering a project, since third-party 
services and their availability can change independently of this plugin.
