I pushed a version of this which is experimentally implemented in Synapse and Element Android. |
Synapse 1.33.0rc1 (2021-04-28) ============================== Features -------- - Update experimental support for [MSC3083](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3083): restricting room access via group membership. ([\#9800](#9800), [\#9814](#9814)) - Add experimental support for handling presence on a worker. ([\#9819](#9819), [\#9820](#9820), [\#9828](#9828), [\#9850](#9850)) - Return a new template when an user attempts to renew their account multiple times with the same token, stating that their account is set to expire. This replaces the invalid token template that would previously be shown in this case. This change concerns the optional account validity feature. ([\#9832](#9832)) Bugfixes -------- - Fixes the OIDC SSO flow when using a `public_baseurl` value including a non-root URL path. ([\#9726](#9726)) - Fix thumbnail generation for some sites with non-standard content types. Contributed by @rkfg. ([\#9788](#9788)) - Add some sanity checks to identity server passed to 3PID bind/unbind endpoints. ([\#9802](#9802)) - Limit the size of HTTP responses read over federation. ([\#9833](#9833)) - Fix a bug which could cause Synapse to get stuck in a loop of resyncing device lists. ([\#9867](#9867)) - Fix a long-standing bug where errors from federation did not propagate to the client. ([\#9868](#9868)) Improved Documentation ---------------------- - Add a note to the docker docs mentioning that we mirror upstream's supported Docker platforms. ([\#9801](#9801)) Internal Changes ---------------- - Add a dockerfile for running Synapse in worker-mode under Complement. ([\#9162](#9162)) - Apply `pyupgrade` across the codebase. ([\#9786](#9786)) - Move some replication processing out of `generic_worker`. ([\#9796](#9796)) - Replace `HomeServer.get_config()` with inline references. ([\#9815](#9815)) - Rename some handlers and config modules to not duplicate the top-level module. ([\#9816](#9816)) - Fix a long-standing bug which caused `max_upload_size` to not be correctly enforced. ([\#9817](#9817)) - Reduce CPU usage of the user directory by reusing existing calculated room membership. ([\#9821](#9821)) - Small speed up for joining large remote rooms. ([\#9825](#9825)) - Introduce flake8-bugbear to the test suite and fix some of its lint violations. ([\#9838](#9838)) - Only store the raw data in the in-memory caches, rather than objects that include references to e.g. the data stores. ([\#9845](#9845)) - Limit length of accepted email addresses. ([\#9855](#9855)) - Remove redundant `synapse.types.Collection` type definition. ([\#9856](#9856)) - Handle recently added rate limits correctly when using `--no-rate-limit` with the demo scripts. ([\#9858](#9858)) - Disable invite rate-limiting by default when running the unit tests. ([\#9871](#9871)) - Pass a reactor into `SynapseSite` to make testing easier. ([\#9874](#9874)) - Make `DomainSpecificString` an `attrs` class. ([\#9875](#9875)) - Add type hints to `synapse.api.auth` and `synapse.api.auth_blocking` modules. ([\#9876](#9876)) - Remove redundant `_PushHTTPChannel` test class. ([\#9878](#9878)) - Remove backwards-compatibility code for Python versions < 3.6. ([\#9879](#9879)) - Small performance improvement around handling new local presence updates. ([\#9887](#9887))
I should mention that this has an experimental implementation in Synapse. |
Synapse 1.32.2 (2021-04-22) =========================== This release includes a fix for a regression introduced in 1.32.0. Bugfixes -------- - Fix a regression in Synapse 1.32.0 and 1.32.1 which caused `LoggingContext` errors in plugins. ([\#9857](matrix-org/synapse#9857)) Synapse 1.32.1 (2021-04-21) =========================== This release fixes [a regression](matrix-org/synapse#9853) in Synapse 1.32.0 that caused connected Prometheus instances to become unstable. However, as this release is still subject to the `LoggingContext` change in 1.32.0, it is recommended to remain on or downgrade to 1.31.0. Bugfixes -------- - Fix a regression in Synapse 1.32.0 which caused Synapse to report large numbers of Prometheus time series, potentially overwhelming Prometheus instances. ([\#9854](matrix-org/synapse#9854)) Synapse 1.32.0 (2021-04-20) =========================== **Note:** This release introduces [a regression](matrix-org/synapse#9853) that can overwhelm connected Prometheus instances. This issue was not present in 1.32.0rc1. If affected, it is recommended to downgrade to 1.31.0 in the meantime, and follow [these instructions](matrix-org/synapse#9854 (comment)) to clean up any excess writeahead logs. **Note:** This release also mistakenly included a change that may affected Synapse modules that import `synapse.logging.context.LoggingContext`, such as [synapse-s3-storage-provider](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse-s3-storage-provider). This will be fixed in a later Synapse version. **Note:** This release requires Python 3.6+ and Postgres 9.6+ or SQLite 3.22+. This release removes the deprecated `GET /_synapse/admin/v1/users/<user_id>` admin API. Please use the [v2 API](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/admin_api/user_admin_api.rst#query-user-account) instead, which has improved capabilities. This release requires Application Services to use type `m.login.application_service` when registering users via the `/_matrix/client/r0/register` endpoint to comply with the spec. Please ensure your Application Services are up to date. If you are using the `packages.matrix.org` Debian repository for Synapse packages, note that we have recently updated the expiry date on the gpg signing key. If you see an error similar to `The following signatures were invalid: EXPKEYSIG F473DD4473365DE1`, you will need to get a fresh copy of the keys. You can do so with: ```sh sudo wget -O /usr/share/keyrings/matrix-org-archive-keyring.gpg https://packages.matrix.org/debian/matrix-org-archive-keyring.gpg ``` Bugfixes -------- - Fix the log lines of nested logging contexts. Broke in 1.32.0rc1. ([\#9829](matrix-org/synapse#9829)) Synapse 1.32.0rc1 (2021-04-13) ============================== Features -------- - Add a Synapse module for routing presence updates between users. ([\#9491](matrix-org/synapse#9491)) - Add an admin API to manage ratelimit for a specific user. ([\#9648](matrix-org/synapse#9648)) - Include request information in structured logging output. ([\#9654](matrix-org/synapse#9654)) - Add `order_by` to the admin API `GET /_synapse/admin/v2/users`. Contributed by @dklimpel. ([\#9691](matrix-org/synapse#9691)) - Replace the `room_invite_state_types` configuration setting with `room_prejoin_state`. ([\#9700](matrix-org/synapse#9700)) - Add experimental support for [MSC3083](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3083): restricting room access via group membership. ([\#9717](matrix-org/synapse#9717), [\#9735](matrix-org/synapse#9735)) - Update experimental support for Spaces: include `m.room.create` in the room state sent with room-invites. ([\#9710](matrix-org/synapse#9710)) - Synapse now requires Python 3.6 or later. It also requires Postgres 9.6 or later or SQLite 3.22 or later. ([\#9766](matrix-org/synapse#9766)) Bugfixes -------- - Prevent `synapse_forward_extremities` and `synapse_excess_extremity_events` Prometheus metrics from initially reporting zero-values after startup. ([\#8926](matrix-org/synapse#8926)) - Fix recently added ratelimits to correctly honour the application service `rate_limited` flag. ([\#9711](matrix-org/synapse#9711)) - Fix longstanding bug which caused `duplicate key value violates unique constraint "remote_media_cache_thumbnails_media_origin_media_id_thumbna_key"` errors. ([\#9725](matrix-org/synapse#9725)) - Fix bug where sharded federation senders could get stuck repeatedly querying the DB in a loop, using lots of CPU. ([\#9770](matrix-org/synapse#9770)) - Fix duplicate logging of exceptions thrown during federation transaction processing. ([\#9780](matrix-org/synapse#9780)) Updates to the Docker image --------------------------- - Move opencontainers labels to the final Docker image such that users can inspect them. ([\#9765](matrix-org/synapse#9765)) Improved Documentation ---------------------- - Make the `allowed_local_3pids` regex example in the sample config stricter. ([\#9719](matrix-org/synapse#9719)) Deprecations and Removals ------------------------- - Remove old admin API `GET /_synapse/admin/v1/users/<user_id>`. ([\#9401](matrix-org/synapse#9401)) - Make `/_matrix/client/r0/register` expect a type of `m.login.application_service` when an Application Service registers a user, to align with [the relevant spec](https://spec.matrix.org/unstable/application-service-api/#server-admin-style-permissions). ([\#9548](matrix-org/synapse#9548)) Internal Changes ---------------- - Replace deprecated `imp` module with successor `importlib`. Contributed by Cristina Muñoz.

([\#9682](matrix-org/synapse#9682)) - Update `scripts-dev/complement.sh` to use a local checkout of Complement, allow running a subset of tests and have it use Synapse's Complement test blacklist. ([\#9685](matrix-org/synapse#9685)) - Improve Jaeger tracing for `to_device` messages. ([\#9686](matrix-org/synapse#9686)) - Add release helper script for automating part of the Synapse release process. ([\#9713](matrix-org/synapse#9713)) - Add type hints to expiring cache. ([\#9730](matrix-org/synapse#9730)) - Convert various testcases to `HomeserverTestCase`. ([\#9736](matrix-org/synapse#9736)) - Start linting mypy with `no_implicit_optional`. ([\#9742](matrix-org/synapse#9742)) - Add missing type hints to federation handler and server. ([\#9743](matrix-org/synapse#9743)) - Check that a `ConfigError` is raised, rather than simply `Exception`, when appropriate in homeserver config file generation tests. ([\#9753](matrix-org/synapse#9753)) - Fix incompatibility with `tox` 2.5. ([\#9769](matrix-org/synapse#9769)) - Enable Complement tests for [MSC2946](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2946): Spaces Summary API. ([\#9771](matrix-org/synapse#9771)) - Use mock from the standard library instead of a separate package. ([\#9772](matrix-org/synapse#9772)) - Update Black configuration to target Python 3.6. ([\#9781](matrix-org/synapse#9781)) - Add option to skip unit tests when building Debian packages. ([\#9793](matrix-org/synapse#9793)) Synapse 1.31.0 (2021-04-06) =========================== **Note:** As announced in v1.25.0, and in line with the deprecation policy for platform dependencies, this is the last release to support Python 3.5 and PostgreSQL 9.5. Future versions of Synapse will require Python 3.6+ and PostgreSQL 9.6+, as per our [deprecation policy](docs/deprecation_policy.md). This is also the last release that the Synapse team will be publishing packages for Debian Stretch and Ubuntu Xenial. Improved Documentation ---------------------- - Add a document describing the deprecation policy for platform dependencies. ([\#9723](matrix-org/synapse#9723)) Internal Changes ---------------- - Revert using `dmypy run` in lint script. ([\#9720](matrix-org/synapse#9720)) - Pin flake8-bugbear's version. ([\#9734](matrix-org/synapse#9734)) Synapse 1.31.0rc1 (2021-03-30) ============================== Features -------- - Add support to OpenID Connect login for requiring attributes on the `userinfo` response. Contributed by Hubbe King. ([\#9609](matrix-org/synapse#9609)) - Add initial experimental support for a "space summary" API. ([\#9643](matrix-org/synapse#9643), [\#9652](matrix-org/synapse#9652), [\#9653](matrix-org/synapse#9653)) - Add support for the busy presence state as described in [MSC3026](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3026). ([\#9644](matrix-org/synapse#9644)) - Add support for credentials for proxy authentication in the `HTTPS_PROXY` environment variable.

([\#9634](matrix-org/synapse#9634)) - Rename storage function to fix spelling and not conflict with another function's name. ([\#9637](matrix-org/synapse#9637)) - Improve performance of federation catch up by sending the latest events in the room to the remote, rather than just the last event sent by the local server. ([\#9640](matrix-org/synapse#9640), [\#9664](matrix-org/synapse#9664)) - In the `federation_client` commandline client, stop automatically adding the URL prefix, so that servlets on other prefixes can be tested. ([\#9645](matrix-org/synapse#9645)) - In the `federation_client` commandline client, handle inline `signing_key`s in `homeserver.yaml`. ([\#9647](matrix-org/synapse#9647)) - Fixed some antipattern issues to improve code quality. ([\#9649](matrix-org/synapse#9649)) - Add a storage method for pulling all current user presence state from the database. ([\#9650](matrix-org/synapse#9650)) - Import `HomeServer` from the proper module. ([\#9665](matrix-org/synapse#9665)) - Increase default join ratelimiting burst rate.

([\#9709](matrix-org/synapse#9709)) Synapse 1.30.1 (2021-03-26) =========================== This release is identical to Synapse 1.30.0, with the exception of explicitly setting a minimum version of Python's Cryptography library to ensure that users of Synapse are protected from the recent [OpenSSL security advisories](https://mta.openssl.org/pipermail/openssl-announce/2021-March/000198.html), especially CVE-2021-3449. Note that Cryptography defaults to bundling its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL, which means that you may not be protected by your operating system's security updates. It's also worth noting that Cryptography no longer supports Python 3.5, so admins deploying to older environments may not be protected against this or future vulnerabilities. Synapse will be dropping support for Python 3.5 at the end of March. Updates to the Docker image --------------------------- - Ensure that the docker container has up to date versions of openssl. ([\#9697](matrix-org/synapse#9697)) Internal Changes ---------------- - Enforce that `cryptography` dependency is up to date to ensure it has the most recent openssl patches. ([\#9697](matrix-org/synapse#9697)) Synapse 1.30.0 (2021-03-22) =========================== Note that this release deprecates the ability for appservices to call `POST /_matrix/client/r0/register` without the body parameter `type`. Appservice developers should use a `type` value of `m.login.application_service` as per [the spec](https://matrix.org/docs/spec/application_service/r0.1.2#server-admin-style-permissions). In future releases, calling this endpoint with an access token - but without a `m.login.application_service` type - will fail. No significant changes. Synapse 1.30.0rc1 (2021-03-16) ============================== Features -------- - Add prometheus metrics for number of users successfully registering and logging in. ([\#9510](matrix-org/synapse#9510), [\#9511](matrix-org/synapse#9511), [\#9573](matrix-org/synapse#9573)) - Add `synapse_federation_last_sent_pdu_time` and `synapse_federation_last_received_pdu_time` prometheus metrics, which monitor federation delays by reporting the timestamps of messages sent and received to a set of remote servers. ([\#9540](matrix-org/synapse#9540)) - Add support for generating JSON Web Tokens dynamically for use as OIDC client secrets. ([\#9549](matrix-org/synapse#9549)) - Optimise handling of incomplete room history for incoming federation. ([\#9601](matrix-org/synapse#9601)) - Finalise support for allowing clients to pick an SSO Identity Provider ([MSC2858](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2858)). ([\#9617](matrix-org/synapse#9617)) - Tell spam checker modules about the SSO IdP a user registered through if one was used. ([\#9626](matrix-org/synapse#9626)) Bugfixes -------- - Fix long-standing bug when generating thumbnails for some images with transparency: `TypeError: cannot unpack non-iterable int object`. ([\#9473](matrix-org/synapse#9473)) - Purge chain cover indexes for events that were purged prior to Synapse v1.29.0.

([\#9587](matrix-org/synapse#9587)) - Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.20 which caused incoming federation transactions to stack up, causing slow recovery from outages. ([\#9597](matrix-org/synapse#9597)) - Fix a bug introduced in v1.28.0 where the OpenID Connect callback endpoint could error with a `MacaroonInitException`. ([\#9620](matrix-org/synapse#9620)) - Fix Internal Server Error on `GET /_synapse/client/saml2/authn_response` request. ([\#9623](matrix-org/synapse#9623)) Updates to the Docker image --------------------------- - Make use of an improved malloc implementation (`jemalloc`) in the docker image. ([\#8553](matrix-org/synapse#8553)) Improved Documentation ---------------------- - Add relayd entry to reverse proxy example configurations. ([\#9508](matrix-org/synapse#9508)) - Improve the SAML2 upgrade notes for 1.27.0. ([\#9550](matrix-org/synapse#9550)) - Link to the "List user's media" admin API from the media admin API docs. ([\#9571](matrix-org/synapse#9571)) - Clarify the spam checker modules documentation example to mention that `parse_config` is a required method. ([\#9580](matrix-org/synapse#9580)) - Clarify the sample configuration for `stats` settings. ([\#9604](matrix-org/synapse#9604)) Deprecations and Removals ------------------------- - The `synapse_federation_last_sent_pdu_age` and `synapse_federation_last_received_pdu_age` prometheus metrics have been removed. They are replaced by `synapse_federation_last_sent_pdu_time` and `synapse_federation_last_received_pdu_time`. ([\#9540](matrix-org/synapse#9540)) - Registering an Application Service user without using the `m.login.application_service` login type will be unsupported in an upcoming Synapse release. ([\#9559](matrix-org/synapse#9559)) Internal Changes ---------------- - Add tests to ResponseCache. ([\#9458](matrix-org/synapse#9458)) - Add type hints to purge room and server notice admin API. ([\#9520](matrix-org/synapse#9520)) - Add extra logging to ObservableDeferred when callbacks throw exceptions. ([\#9523](matrix-org/synapse#9523)) - Fix incorrect type hints. ([\#9528](matrix-org/synapse#9528), [\#9543](matrix-org/synapse#9543), [\#9591](matrix-org/synapse#9591), [\#9608](matrix-org/synapse#9608), [\#9618](matrix-org/synapse#9618)) - Add an additional test for purging a room. ([\#9541](matrix-org/synapse#9541)) - Add a `.git-blame-ignore-revs` file with the hashes of auto-formatting. ([\#9560](matrix-org/synapse#9560)) - Increase the threshold before which outbound federation to a server goes into "catch up" mode, which is expensive for the remote server to handle.

Synapse 1.49.0 (2021-12-14) =========================== No significant changes since version 1.49.0rc1. Support for Ubuntu 21.04 ends next month on the 20th of January --------------------------------------------------------------- For users of Ubuntu 21.04 (Hirsute Hippo), please be aware that [upstream support for this version of Ubuntu will end next month][Ubuntu2104EOL]. We will stop producing packages for Ubuntu 21.04 after upstream support ends. [Ubuntu2104EOL]: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2021-December/000275.html The wiki has been migrated to the documentation website ------------------------------------------------------- We've decided to move the existing, somewhat stagnant pages from the GitHub wiki to the [documentation website](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/). This was done for two reasons. The first was to ensure that changes are checked by multiple authors before being committed (everyone makes mistakes!) and the second was visibility of the documentation. Not everyone knows that Synapse has some very useful information hidden away in its GitHub wiki pages. Bringing them to the documentation website should help with visibility, as well as keep all Synapse documentation in one, easily-searchable location. Note that contributions to the documentation website happen through [GitHub pull requests](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pulls). Please visit [#synapse-dev:matrix.org](https://matrix.to/#/#synapse-dev:matrix.org) if you need help with the process! Synapse 1.49.0rc1 (2021-12-07) ============================== Features -------- - Add [MSC3030](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3030) experimental client and federation API endpoints to get the closest event to a given timestamp.

([\#11306](#11306), [\#11475](#11475), [\#11479](#11479)) - Support the stable API endpoints for [MSC2946](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2946): the room `/hierarchy` endpoint. ([\#11329](#11329)) - Add admin API to get some information about federation status with remote servers. ([\#11407](#11407)) - Support expiry of refresh tokens and expiry of the overall session when refresh tokens are in use. ([\#11425](#11425)) - Stabilise support for [MSC2918](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/blob/main/proposals/2918-refreshtokens.md#msc2918-refresh-tokens) refresh tokens as they have now been merged into the Matrix specification. ([\#11435](#11435), [\#11522](#11522)) - Update [MSC2918 refresh token](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/blob/main/proposals/2918-refreshtokens.md#msc2918-refresh-tokens) support to confirm with the latest revision: accept the `refresh_tokens` parameter in the request body rather than in the URL parameters. ([\#11430](#11430)) - Support configuring the lifetime of non-refreshable access tokens separately to refreshable access tokens. ([\#11445](#11445)) - Expose `synapse_homeserver` and `synapse_worker` commands as entry points to run Synapse's main process and worker processes, respectively. Contributed by @Ma27.

([\#11523](#11523)) - Add support for the `/_matrix/client/v3/login/sso/redirect/{idpId}` API from Matrix v1.1. This endpoint was overlooked when support for v3 endpoints was added in Synapse 1.48.0rc1. ([\#11451](#11451)) Bugfixes -------- - Fix using [MSC2716](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2716) batch sending in combination with event persistence workers. Contributed by @tulir at Beeper. ([\#11220](#11220)) - Fix a long-standing bug where all requests that read events from the database could get stuck as a result of losing the database connection, properly this time.

([\#11511](#11511)) - Fix a regression in Synapse 1.48.0 where presence workers would not clear their presence updates over replication on shutdown. ([\#11518](#11518)) - Fix a regression in Synapse 1.48.0 where the module API's `looping_background_call` method would spam errors to the logs when given a non-async function. ([\#11524](#11524)) Updates to the Docker image --------------------------- - Update `Dockerfile-workers` to healthcheck all workers in the container. ([\#11429](#11429)) Improved Documentation ---------------------- - Update the media repository documentation. ([\#11415](#11415)) - Update section about backward extremities in the room DAG concepts doc to correct the misconception about backward extremities indicating whether we have fetched an events' `prev_events`.

([\#11696](matrix-org/synapse#11696)) Synapse 1.49.2 (2021-12-21) =========================== This release fixes a regression introduced in Synapse 1.49.0 which could cause `/sync` requests to take significantly longer. This would particularly affect "initial" syncs for users participating in a large number of rooms, and in extreme cases, could make it impossible for such users to log in on a new client. **Note:** in line with our [deprecation policy](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/deprecation_policy.html) for platform dependencies, this will be the last release to support Python 3.6 and PostgreSQL 9.6, both of which have now reached upstream end-of-life. Synapse will require Python 3.7+ and PostgreSQL 10+. **Note:** We will also stop producing packages for Ubuntu 18.04 (Bionic Beaver) after this release, as it uses Python 3.6. Bugfixes -------- - Fix a performance regression in `/sync` handling, introduced in 1.49.0. ([\#11583](matrix-org/synapse#11583)) Internal Changes ---------------- - Work around a build problem on Debian Buster. ([\#11625](matrix-org/synapse#11625)) Synapse 1.49.1 (2021-12-21) =========================== Not released due to problems building the debian packages. Synapse 1.49.0 (2021-12-14) =========================== No significant changes since version 1.49.0rc1. Support for Ubuntu 21.04 ends next month on the 20th of January --------------------------------------------------------------- For users of Ubuntu 21.04 (Hirsute Hippo), please be aware that [upstream support for this version of Ubuntu will end next month][Ubuntu2104EOL]. We will stop producing packages for Ubuntu 21.04 after upstream support ends. [Ubuntu2104EOL]: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2021-December/000275.html The wiki has been migrated to the documentation website ------------------------------------------------------- We've decided to move the existing, somewhat stagnant pages from the GitHub wiki to the [documentation website](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/). This was done for two reasons. The first was to ensure that changes are checked by multiple authors before being committed (everyone makes mistakes!) and the second was visibility of the documentation. Not everyone knows that Synapse has some very useful information hidden away in its GitHub wiki pages. Bringing them to the documentation website should help with visibility, as well as keep all Synapse documentation in one, easily-searchable location. Note that contributions to the documentation website happen through [GitHub pull requests](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pulls). Please visit [#synapse-dev:matrix.org](https://matrix.to/#/#synapse-dev:matrix.org) if you need help with the process!

Synapse 1.49.0 (2021-12-14) =========================== No significant changes since version 1.49.0rc1. Support for Ubuntu 21.04 ends next month on the 20th of January --------------------------------------------------------------- For users of Ubuntu 21.04 (Hirsute Hippo), please be aware that [upstream support for this version of Ubuntu will end next month][Ubuntu2104EOL]. We will stop producing packages for Ubuntu 21.04 after upstream support ends. [Ubuntu2104EOL]: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2021-December/000275.html The wiki has been migrated to the documentation website ------------------------------------------------------- We've decided to move the existing, somewhat stagnant pages from the GitHub wiki to the [documentation website](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/). This was done for two reasons. The first was to ensure that changes are checked by multiple authors before being committed (everyone makes mistakes!) and the second was visibility of the documentation. Not everyone knows that Synapse has some very useful information hidden away in its GitHub wiki pages. Bringing them to the documentation website should help with visibility, as well as keep all Synapse documentation in one, easily-searchable location. Note that contributions to the documentation website happen through [GitHub pull requests](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pulls). Please visit [#synapse-dev:matrix.org](https://matrix.to/#/#synapse-dev:matrix.org) if you need help with the process!

([\#11459](matrix-org/synapse#11459), [\#11490](matrix-org/synapse#11490)) - Extend the "delete room" admin api to work correctly on rooms which have previously been partially deleted. ([\#11523](matrix-org/synapse#11523)) - Add support for the `/_matrix/client/v3/login/sso/redirect/{idpId}` API from Matrix v1.1.
