This introduces a bit +more backwards and forwards between the HS and the client, but this improves +the overall flexibility of the API. You can now GET on /register to retrieve a list +of valid registration flows. Upon choosing one, they are submitted in the same +way as login, e.g:: + + { + type: m.login.password, + user: foo, + password: bar + } + +The default HS supports 2 flows, with and without Identity Server email +authentication. Enabling captcha on the HS will add in an extra step to all +flows: ``m.login.recaptcha`` which must be completed before you can transition +to the next stage. There is a new login type: ``m.login.email.identity`` which +contains the ``threepidCreds`` key which were previously sent in the original +register request. For more information on this, see the specification. + + Upgrading to v0.2.0 ===================
