 OK, I wrote some text on that. You can find it in branch `bug15008` at
 https://git.torproject.org/user/asn/hax.git . Or here:
 https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/asn/hax.git/commit/?h=bug15008&id=2eb0ea0d6553d796314910e4166f6d20b7269737

 It basically adds this text:
 {{{
     It's worth noting that your hidden service's address will not be
     announced to anyone when you set it up. This means that if you
     want people to visit it, you should advertise its onion address
     yourself on social networks, hidden service search engines and
     whatnot. As an example, you can <a
     href="https://ahmia.fi/add/">register your hidden service
     address</a> to the <a href="https://ahmia.fi/">Ahmia hidden
     service index</a>
 }}}
