@steveSteve Bate "will there be CIMD hosting services", you mean like cimd-service.fly.dev ?

Or: ietf.org/archive/id/draft-ietf

Effectively, yes. You could have a CIMD hosting service, but if you use the `hostname` of the CIMD as the "client name" (when untrusted) you probably want a "pretty" value instead of `cimd-service.fly.dev/clients/b

In AT Protocol, they say essentially: "If the URL is `https://hostname.example/oauth-client-metadata.json" then we can display just `hostname.example` as the client name when untrusted.

That's a nice pattern, we *may* adopt that in CIMD spec itself, but I don't think we have that pattern currently.
