 Pre-compiled binaries
 ---------------------
 
-These 3 plugins are provided as part of the ``orthancteam/orthanc`` :ref:`Docker images <docker-orthancteam>`.
-The AWS plugin is available in the default Docker images while the Azure and Google plugins are available
-in the ``-full`` images.
+Note about proprietary cloud storage
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+These plugins are used to interface Orthanc with commercial and
+proprietary cloud services that you accept to pay. As a consequence,
+the Orthanc project usually doesn't freely update them or fix them
+unless the requester purchases a support contract, e.g., at `Orthanc
+Team <https://orthanc.team>`__.
+
+Although you are obviously free to compile these plugins by
+yourself (instructions are given below), purchasing such support
+contracts makes the Orthanc project sustainable in the long term, to
+the benefit of the worldwide community of medical imaging.

+in the default Docker images, while the Azure and Google plugins are
+available in the ``-full`` images.

+
+AWS S3 plugin
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Because the AWS S3 plugin is compatible with free and open-source
+implementations of the S3 protocol (notably MinIO and Ceph), we
+provide pre-compiled binaries of the AWS S3 plugin, which can be found
+at the following locations:
+
+* In the `official Microsoft Windows installers <https://orthanc.uclouvain.be/downloads/windows-64/installers/index.html>`__, starting with release 24.6.3.
+* For `Microsoft Windows 32 <https://orthanc.uclouvain.be/downloads/windows-32/orthanc-aws-s3/index.html>`__,
+* For `Microsoft Windows 64 <https://orthanc.uclouvain.be/downloads/windows-64/orthanc-aws-s3/index.html>`__,
+* For `cross-distribution Linux <https://orthanc.uclouvain.be/downloads/linux-standard-base/orthanc-aws-s3/index.html>`__,
+* In the :ref:`backport Debian repository <binaries>` (notably compatible with Ubuntu 22.04 and 24.04),
+* In the :ref:`jodogne/orthanc Docker images <docker>`,
+* In the :ref:`orthancteam/orthanc Docker images <docker-orthancteam>`.

 The Azure plugin is also available as part of the `Windows Installer
 <https://orthanc.uclouvain.be/downloads/windows-64/installers/index.html>`__
 (only for 64bits platform).

 This option was introduced in version 2.3.0.  If set to false (default value), the default "object" mode is used.
