+## Maintaining a plugin
+
+When writing a plugin, you will probably access internals of Poetry, since there is no
+stable public API. Although we try our best to deprecate methods first, before
+removing them, sometimes the signature of an internal method has to be changed.
+
+As the author of a plugin, you are probably testing your plugin
+against the latest release of Poetry.
+Additionally, you should consider testing against the latest release branch and the
+master branch of Poetry and schedule a CI job that runs regularly even if you did not
+make any changes to your plugin.
+This way, you will notice internal changes that break your plugin immediately
+and can prepare for the next Poetry release.
