    Synapse 1.1.0rc2 (2019-07-03)
    =============================
    
    Bugfixes
    --------
    
    - Fix regression in 1.1rc1 where OPTIONS requests to the media repo would fail. ([\#5593](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5593))
    - Removed the `SYNAPSE_SMTP_*` docker container environment variables. Using these environment variables prevented the docker container from starting in Synapse v1.0, even though they didn't actually allow any functionality anyway. Users are advised to remove `SYNAPSE_SMTP_HOST`, `SYNAPSE_SMTP_PORT`, `SYNAPSE_SMTP_USER`, `SYNAPSE_SMTP_PASSWORD` and `SYNAPSE_SMTP_FROM` environment variables from their docker run commands. ([\#5596](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5596))
    - Fix a number of "Starting txn from sentinel context" warnings. ([\#5605](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5605))
    
    Internal Changes
    ----------------
    
    - Update github templates. ([\#5552](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5552))

    Synapse 1.1.0rc1 (2019-07-02)
    =============================
    
    As of v1.1.0, Synapse no longer supports Python 2, nor Postgres version 9.4.
    See the [upgrade notes](UPGRADE.rst#upgrading-to-v110) for more details.
    
    Features
    --------
    
    - Added possibilty to disable local password authentication. Contributed by Daniel Hoffend. ([\#5092](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5092))
    - Add monthly active users to phonehome stats. ([\#5252](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5252))
    - Allow expired user to trigger renewal email sending manually. ([\#5363](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5363))
    - Statistics on forward extremities per room are now exposed via Prometheus. ([\#5384](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5384), [\#5458](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5458), [\#5461](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5461))
    - Add --no-daemonize option to run synapse in the foreground, per issue #4130. Contributed by Soham Gumaste. ([\#5412](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5412), [\#5587](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5587))
    - Fully support SAML2 authentication. Contributed by [Alexander Trost](https://github.com/galexrt) - thank you! ([\#5422](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5422))
    - Allow server admins to define implementations of extra rules for allowing or denying incoming events. ([\#5440](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5440), [\#5474](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5474), [\#5477](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5477))
    - Add support for handling pagination APIs on client reader worker. ([\#5505](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5505), [\#5513](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5513), [\#5531](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5531))
    - Improve help and cmdline option names for --generate-config options. ([\#5512](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5512))
    - Allow configuration of the path used for ACME account keys. ([\#5516](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5516), [\#5521](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5521), [\#5522](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5522))
    - Add --data-dir and --open-private-ports options. ([\#5524](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5524))
    - Split public rooms directory auth config in two settings, in order to manage client auth independently from the federation part of it. Obsoletes the "restrict_public_rooms_to_local_users" configuration setting. If "restrict_public_rooms_to_local_users" is set in the config, Synapse will act as if both new options are enabled, i.e. require authentication through the client API and deny federation requests. ([\#5534](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5534))
    - The minimum TLS version used for outgoing federation requests can now be set with `federation_client_minimum_tls_version`. ([\#5550](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5550))
    - Optimise devices changed query to not pull unnecessary rows from the database, reducing database load. ([\#5559](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5559))
    - Add new metrics for number of forward extremities being persisted and number of state groups involved in resolution. ([\#5476](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5476))
    
    Bugfixes
    --------
    
    - Fix bug processing incoming events over federation if call to `/get_missing_events` fails. ([\#5042](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5042))
    - Prevent more than one room upgrade happening simultaneously on the same room. ([\#5051](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5051))

    - Fix bug where clients could tight loop calling `/sync` for a period. ([\#5507](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5507))
    - Fix bug with `jinja2` preventing Synapse from starting. Users who had this problem should now simply need to run `pip install matrix-synapse`. ([\#5514](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5514))
    - Fix a regression where homeservers on private IP addresses were incorrectly blacklisted. ([\#5523](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5523))
    - Fixed m.login.jwt using unregistred user_id and added pyjwt>=1.6.4 as jwt conditional dependencies. Contributed by Pau Rodriguez-Estivill. ([\#5555](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5555), [\#5586](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5586))
    - Fix a bug that would cause invited users to receive several emails for a single 3PID invite in case the inviter is rate limited. ([\#5576](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5576))

    - Add ability to change Docker containers [timezone](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones) with the `TZ` variable. ([\#5383](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5383))
    - Update docker image to use Python 3.7. ([\#5546](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5546))
    - Deprecate the use of environment variables for configuration, and make the use of a static configuration the default. ([\#5561](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5561), [\#5562](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5562), [\#5566](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5566), [\#5567](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5567))
