+Introduction
+============
+
+This module implements the experimental XEP-0474: SASL SCRAM Downgrade
+Protection. It provides an alternative downgrade protection mechanism to
+client-side pinning which is currently the most common method of downgrade
+protection.
+
+**Note:** This module implements version 0.3.0 of XEP-0474. As of 2023-12-05,
+this version is not yet published on xmpp.org. Version 0.3.0 of the XEP is
+implemented in Monal 6.0.1. No other clients are currently known to implement
+the XEP at the time of writing.
+
+# Configuration
+
+There are no configuration options for this module, just load it as normal.
+
+# Compatibility
+
+For SASL2 (XEP-0388) clients, it is compatible with the mod_sasl2 community module.
+
+For clients using RFC 6120 SASL, it requires Prosody trunk 33e5edbd6a4a or
+later. It is not compatible with Prosody 0.12 (it will load, but simply
+won't do anything) for "legacy SASL".
