Will fix, but not until tomorrow :-)

The howto claims that I can instantiate a Consumer simply with Consumer. This appears no longer to be true, as the database and the config parameters are mandatory.

There are more issues with this document. Do you want me to report them in separate issues, or in a single one?

• it says that out-of-band registration is put into the client using client.client_info = client_reg. However, a client_info attribute is never used; client.store_registration_info(client_reg)would work, or alternatively directly setting client_idand client_secret
• it says to put a nonce into the args using hmac.new(_nonce, digestmod=hashlib.sha224). However, this will put a string like <hmac.HMAC instance at 0x110610758> into the args. It appears that one doesn't need to fill in a nonce at all, as the library will do this on its own (IIUC).
• likewise, putting a client_id into the args dictionary appears unnecessary, as it will fill that out itself.

I’d prefer a single one if that works for you.
