mod_http_oauth2: Add option for specifying TTL of registered clients Meant to simplify configuration, since TTL vs ignoring expiration is expected to be the main thing one would want to configure. Unsure what the implications of having unlimited lifetime of clients are, given no way to revoke them currently, short of rotating the signing secret. On one hand, it would be annoying to have the client expire. On the other hand, it is trivial to re-register it.

summary: Replace LaTeX markup in messages with embedded images
...

Introduction
============

This module intercepts messages between users and into chatrooms, and
attaches a links to a rendered version of any
[LaTeX](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LaTeX) in the message. This
requires client support for
[XHTML-IM](http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0071.html), and fetching
images via HTTP.

This module was tested with the [Gajim](http://gajim.org/) client.

Details
=======

There is no configuration (yet). The module uses
[MathTran](http://www.mathtran.org/) to render the LaTeX.

Todo
====

-   Support for other rendering services (easy)
-   Provide a built-in rendering service (e.g. mimetex)
-   Send the images inline over XMPP (little client support at the
    moment)

Compatibility
