- local: Provide an identity store and register to the own backend

-This bot provides a two-step-registration for matrix ([synapse](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse)).
+This bot provides a two-step-registration for matrix.
 
 This is done in several steps:
-- potential new user registers on a bot-provided site
+- potential new user registers on a bot-provided side
-- user has to verify its mail address
 - bot sends a message to predefined room with a registration notification.
 - users in that room now can approve or decline the registration.
 - When approved
-  - the bot creates short time credentials
+  - the bot creates credentials
   - sends them to the user
-  - stores them encrypted in own databas or uses that as initial password for registration
+  - stores them encrypted in own database
+  - provides that credentials to [matrix-synapse-rest-auth](https://github.com/kamax-io/matrix-synapse-rest-auth#integrate) which has to be configured to query login.php
 
-To configure synapse so that the users can login that were created via this bot you can either 
+2nd step: Implement the other apis to integrade [mxisd](https://github.com/kamax-io/mxisd/blob/master/docs/backends/rest.md)
-- set `operationMode=synapse` so the bot uses the register api to push the new users to synapse or 
-- integrate it via [matrix-synapse-rest-auth](https://github.com/kamax-io/matrix-synapse-rest-auth#integrate) by configuring your system to point at `internal/login.php`.
-
-When using `operationMode=local` you can have the following benefits (some require [mxisd](https://github.com/kamax-io/mxisd/blob/master/docs/stores/rest.md))
-- Automatically set the display name based on first and last name on first login
-- Use the 3PID lookup for other users (only email)
-- Search for users that you have not seen yet
-
-## Requirements
-
-- Working PHP environment with
-  - database connection provider \[one of sqlite, mysql, postgres\]
-  - curl extension to notify admins and register users (in `operationMode=synapse`)
-  - mail capability to interact with the users (Verification, Approval (+ initial password), Notifications)
-- matrix-synapse-rest-auth when using `operationMode=local`
-- some PHP capable webserver which makes the folder `public` accessible to the public and propably `internal` for server-internal access
 
+This bot takes care for user accounts. So it stores the credentials itself and provides ways to access them via matrix-synapse-rest-auth or mxisd.
 ## How to install
 
 - Copy `config.sample.php` to `config.php` and configure the bot as you can find there
-- Configure your webserver to have the folder `public` accessible via web.
+- Configure your webserver to publish the folder `public`.
-  The folder `internal` contains files that only provide API access. They can be accessed by mxisd or matrix-synapse-rest-auth 
+  The folder `internal` contains files that can be accessed by mxisd or matrix-synapse-rest-auth or else via a reverse proxy
 - To integrate with [matrix-synapse-rest-auth](https://github.com/kamax-io/matrix-synapse-rest-auth):

-## Further notes:
+## Implement usage of additional features:
+### Use the ChangePasswortInterceptor:
 
-### Security: Passwords from registration form are stored in clear text
+You need a reverse proxy which maps `/_matrix/client/r0/account/password` to `internal/intercept_change_password.php`.
-Currently the passwords which are typed in while capturing the register request are stored in clear text.
-The bot needs to access them to trigger a register request with correct credentials.
-It is currently strongly recommended to set `"getPasswordOnRegistration" => false` in your config!
-This leads to autocreating passwords which will then be send to the users directly without storing it.
-
-### Use the ChangePasswortInterceptor (if `operationMode=local`)
-
-To allow users to change their pasword you need a reverse proxy which maps `/_matrix/client/r0/account/password` to `internal/intercept_change_password.php`.
 Here is an example for nginx:
+
 ```
         location /_matrix/client/r0/account/password {
                 proxy_pass http://localhost/mxbot/internal/intercept_change_password.php;
                 proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;
         }
-```
+```
-### The bot postpones some actions
-There is a cron.php which implements retries and database cleanups (e.g. to remove a username claim)
-For this run cron.php regularly with your system of choice.
