+
+ * Support for lazy loading members. This should improve performance for
+   users who joined big rooms a lot. Pass to `lazyLoadMembers = true` option when calling `startClient`.
+
+BREAKING CHANGES
+----------------
+
+ * `MatrixClient::startClient` now returns a Promise. No method should be called on the client before that promise resolves. Before this method didn't return anything.
+ * A new `CATCHUP` sync state, emitted by `MatrixClient#"sync"` and returned by `MatrixClient::getSyncState()`, when doing initial sync after the `ERROR` state. See `MatrixClient` documentation for details.
+ * `RoomState::maySendEvent('m.room.message', userId)` & `RoomState::maySendMessage(userId)` do not check the membership of the user anymore, only the power level. To check if the syncing user is allowed to write in a room, use `Room::maySendMessage()` as `RoomState` is not always aware of the syncing user's membership anymore, in case lazy loading of members is enabled.
