 ## Introduction
 
 This module implements an [OAuth2](https://oauth.net/2/)/[OpenID Connect
-(OIDC)](https://openid.net/connect/) provider HTTP frontend on top of
+(OIDC)](https://openid.net/connect/) Authorization Server on top of
 Prosody's usual internal authentication backend.
 
 OAuth and OIDC are web standards that allow you to provide clients and
 third-party applications limited access to your account, without sharing your
 password with them.
 
-With this module deployed, software that supports OAuth can obtain "access
-tokens" from Prosody which can then be used to connect to XMPP accounts using
-the 'OAUTHBEARER' SASL mechanism or via non-XMPP interfaces such as [mod_rest].
+With this module deployed, software that supports OAuth can obtain
+"access tokens" from Prosody which can then be used to connect to XMPP
+accounts using the [OAUTHBEARER SASL mechanism][rfc7628] or via non-XMPP
+interfaces such as [mod_rest].
 
 Although this module has been around for some time, it has recently been
 significantly extended and largely rewritten to support OAuth/OIDC more fully.

+Registering a client is described in
+[RFC7591](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7591.html).
+
+In addition to the requirements in the RFC, the following requirements
+are enforced:
+
+`client_name`
+:   **MUST** be present, is shown to users in consent screen.
+
+`client_uri`
+:   **MUST** be present and **MUST** be a `https://` URL.
+
+`redirect_uris`
+
+:   **MUST** contain at least one valid URI. Different rules apply
+    depending on the value of `application_type`, see below.
+
+`application_type`
+
+:   Optional, defaults to `web`. Determines further restrictions for
+    `redirect_uris`. The following values are supported:
+
+    `web` *(default)*
+    :   For web clients. With this, `redirect_uris` **MUST** be
+        `https://` URIs and **MUST** use the same hostname part as the
+        `client_uri`.
+
+    `native`

+        match one of:
+
+        -   Loopback HTTP URI, e.g. `http://127.0.0.1/` or
+            `http://[::1]`
+        -   Application-specific scheme, e.g. `com.example.app:/`
+        -   The special OOB URI `urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob`
+
+`tos_uri`, `policy_uri`
+:   Informative URLs pointing to Terms of Service and Service Policy
+    document **MUST** use the same scheme (i.e. `https://`) and hostname
+    as the `client_uri`.
+
+#### Registration Examples
+
+In short registration works by POST-ing a JSON structure describing your
+client to an endpoint:
+
+``` bash
+curl -sSf https://xmpp.example.net/oauth2/register \
+    -H Content-Type:application/json \
+    -H Accept:application/json \
+    --data '

+   "client_uri" : "https://app.example.com/",
+   "redirect_uris" : [
+      "https://app.example.com/redirect"
+   ]
+}
+'
+```
+
+Another example with more fields:
+
+``` bash
+curl -sSf https://xmpp.example.net/oauth2/register \
