|
|
Synapse 1.21.1 (2020-10-13)
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
This release fixes a regression in v1.21.0 that prevented debian packages from being built.
|
|
|
|
It is otherwise identical to v1.21.0.
|
|
|
|
Synapse 1.21.0 (2020-10-12)
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
No significant changes since v1.21.0rc3.
|
|
|
|
As [noted in v1.20.0](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/release-v1.21.1/CHANGES.md#synapse-1200-2020-09-22), a future release will drop support for accessing Synapse's [Admin API](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/tree/master/docs/admin_api) under the `/_matrix/client/*` endpoint prefixes. At that point, the Admin API will only be accessible under `/_synapse/admin`.
