mod_http_oauth2: Shorten default token validity periods With refresh tokens, short lifetime for access tokens is not a problem. The arbitrary choice of one hour seems reasonable. RFC 6749 has it as example value. One week for refresh tokens matching the default archive retention period. This means that a client that remains unused for one week will have to sign in again. An actively used client will continually push that forward with each used refresh token.

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

This module allows users to reset their password via a simple link to a web page.

Reset links may be generated by an admin through their XMPP client using the ad-hoc
command that this module provides. Alternatively other modules may reuse this module
to generate links and e.g. send them via email to the user directly.

A link is only valid for a single reset, and expires after a duration (24 hours by default).

This module depends on Prosody's internal webserver.
