+summary: 'Store who created the invite to create a user account'
+...
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+Invites are an intermediate way between opening registrations completely and
+closing registrations completely.
+
+By letting users invite other users to the server, an administrator exposes
+themselves again to the risk of abuse.
+
+To combat that abuse more effectively, this module allows to store (outside
+of the user’s information) who created an invite which was used to create the
+user’s account.
+
+Details
+=======
+
+Add to `modules_enabled`.
+
+Caveats
+=======
+
+- The information is not deleted even when the associated user accounts are
+  deleted.
+- Currently, there is no way to make any use of that information.
