+summary: Authorization delegation
+rockspec: {}
+...
+
+This module allows delegating authorization questions (role assignment and
+role policies) to another host within prosody.
+
+The primary use of this is for a group of virtual hosts to use a common
+authorization database, for example to allow a MUC component to grant
+administrative access to an admin on a corresponding user virtual host.
+
+## Configuration
+
+The following example will make all role assignments for local and remote JIDs
+from domain.example effective on groups.domain.example:
+
+```
+VirtualHost "domain.example"
+
+Component "groups.domain.example" "muc"
+    authorization = "delegate"
+    authz_delegate_to = "domain.example"
+```
