New issue 1211: Registration in SIOP is better described as "negotiation"
https://bitbucket.org/openid/connect/issues/1211/registration-in-siop-is-better-described

Kristina Yasuda:

The process of RP sending supported configuration metadata to Self-Issued OP and Self-Issued OP checking if it supports the same configuration parameters is currently called “registration“ in SIOP, inspired by dynamic discovery spec, but it was mentioned that “negotiation“ is a more accurate term since neither RP nor Self-Issued OP are required to store any configuration information of each  other and rather negotiate per transaction to establish ad hoc trust.

Proposal would be to change the reference to “registration” in the spec text to “negotiation” including parameter names
