-        Plugins can register things to appear on it, somehow.
+        Plugins can register a hook called 'frontpage_updates_<type>' to add
+        updates to the front page.  `<type>` is an arbitrary string indicating
+        the sort of update the plugin knows how to handle; for example,
+        spline-forum has a `frontpage_updates_forum` hook for posting news from
+        a specific forum.
+
+        Hook handlers should return a list of FrontPageUpdate objects.
+
+        Standard hook parameters are:
+        `limit`, the maximum number of items that should ever be returned.
+        `max_age`, the number of seconds after which items expire.
+        `title`, a name for the source.
+        `icon`, an icon to show next to its name.
+
+        `limit` and `max_age` are also global options.
+
+        Updates are configured in the .ini like so:
+
+            spline-frontpage.sources.foo = updatetype
+            spline-frontpage.sources.foo.opt1 = val1
+            spline-frontpage.sources.foo.opt2 = val2
+
+        Note that the 'foo' name is completely arbitrary and is only used for
+        grouping options together.  This will result in a call to:
+
+            run_hooks('frontpage_updates_updatetype', opt1=val1, opt2=val2)
 
         Local plugins can override the fairly simple index.mako template to
         customize the front page layout.
