Synapse 1.15.0 release day folks.
|
|
|
|
We continue our push to improve performance across the board. Factoring out event persistence into a separate worker pointed the way to a host of small but collectively important improvements. Expect further changes in coming releases.
|
|
|
|
Aside from that the admin API continues to grow (this time device management) and we have improved device list syncing to aid e2ee reliability.
|
|
|
|
We are receiving an increasing number of high quality PRs from the community, please keep them coming. Special thanks to [cg505](https://github.com/cg505), [dklimpel](https://github.com/dklimpel), [WGH](https://github.com/WGH), [olof](https://github.com/olof) and [ilmari](https://github.com/ilmari)
