This project is not yet in highly active development, but work has started on more complete set of requirements and user stories. Chris Steipp put out a call for user stories (see OAuth user stories) which a small set of people from WMF Engineering did an initial prioritization pass on. We determined that most stories fell into two categories :


 * Implicit grant (a.k.a. "user agent flow")
 * Server-side flow

We'll likely need up-front registration for people implementing OAuth, so Chris will propose a workflow for what that looks like. Comments are welcome on the wikitech-l mailing list.
