Hola Carlos,

I do not belong to the mozilla crew but have been fighting to set this
up for a while. Thanks to their help, it has turned out pretty good and
seems to be working relatively stable right now. Thanks again for that!

As far as I understand it, you should go for this:
https://github.com/mozilla/fxa-local-dev

Also, the [email protected] mailing list might be more adequate.

Somebody please correct me if I am wrong.

I have managed to put it behind an apache reverse proxy (at some point,
also with an nginx), use SSL and save the (account-related) stuff to a
mysql database on a stable debian system (although I did have to
horribly patch the fxa-auth-db-mysql in order for it to work with mysql
5.5).

If you have problems running the fxa-local-dev server, I'd definitely
also try the fxa irc channel. There are a lot of really helpful folks
there. Again, thank you very much for the help!

Regarding a document that explains the architecture, I am pretty sure I
have read about it at some point, but I can't manage to find it right
now. It also might just be my imagination playing tricks on me ;)
