This (second description) is clear enough in my opinion.  Whoever
sets up (and runs) an dns server knows what dnscrypt is, and
whoever wants to connect to an dnscrypt enabled dns server /
batch of servers already got provided with the details to do so.
This description gives enough details and words to look them up
for people not familar with the topic.
