Synapse 1.50.0 (2022-01-18) =========================== Please note that we now only support Python 3.7+ and PostgreSQL 10+ (if applicable), because Python 3.6 and PostgreSQL 9.6 have reached end-of-life. No significant changes since 1.50.0rc2. Synapse 1.50.0rc2 (2022-01-14) ============================== This release candidate fixes a federation-breaking regression introduced in Synapse 1.50.0rc1.

([\matrix-org#11729](matrix-org#11729)) - Fix a bug introduced in Synapse v1.50.0rc1 whereby outbound federation could fail because too many EDUs were produced for device updates.

([\matrix-org#11725](matrix-org#11725)) Internal Changes ---------------- - Fix a typechecker problem related to our (ab)use of `nacl.signing.SigningKey`s. ([\matrix-org#11714](matrix-org#11714)) Synapse 1.50.0rc1 (2022-01-05) ============================== Features -------- - Allow guests to send state events per [MSC3419](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3419).
