 Usage
 =====
 
-Use `protoc` with the `--csharp_out` option to generate C# files in the specified directory.
-Include these in your C# project, and add a reference to the `Google.Protobuf` project. Currently
-there is no NuGet package for this, but we will be building one as soon as the API is stable.
+The easiest way how to use C# protobufs is via the `Google.Protobuf`
+NuGet package. Just add the NuGet package to your VS project.
+
+Besides C# runtime library, the NuGet package also contains 
+precompiled version of `protoc.exe` and a copy of well known `.proto`
+files under the package's `tools` directory.

+To generate C# files from your `.proto` files, invoke `protoc` with the 
+`--csharp_out` option.
