    =======================================

    Changes in synapse v0.13.0 (2016-02-10)
    =======================================
    
    This version includes an upgrade of the schema, specifically adding an index to

    * Improve general performance (PR #540, #543. #544, #54, #549, #567)
    * Change guest user ids to be incrementing integers (PR #550)
    * Improve performance of public room list API (PR #552)
    * Change profile API to omit keys rather than return null (PR #557)
    * Add ``/media/r0`` endpoint prefix, which is equivalent to ``/media/v1/``
      (PR #595)
    
    Bug fixes:
    
    * Fix bug with upgrading guest accounts where it would fail if you opened the
      registration email on a different device (PR #547)
    * Fix bug where unread count could be wrong (PR #568)

    * Change default push rules to notify for all messages (PR #486)
    * Change default push rules to not notify on membership changes (PR #514)

      are messages (PR #529)

      changed (PR #461)
    * Fix bug where we returned smaller rather than larger than requested
      thumbnails when ``method=crop`` (PR #464)

    Changes in synapse v0.12.0 (2016-01-04)
    =======================================
    
    * Expose ``/login`` under ``r0`` (PR #459)
    
    Changes in synapse v0.12.0-rc3 (2015-12-23)
    ===========================================
    
    * Allow guest accounts access to ``/sync`` (PR #455)
    * Allow filters to include/exclude rooms at the room level
      rather than just from the components of the sync for each
      room. (PR #454)
    * Include urls for room avatars in the response to ``/publicRooms`` (PR #453)
    * Don't set a identicon as the avatar for a user when they register (PR #450)
    * Add a ``display_name`` to third-party invites (PR #449)
    * Send more information to the identity server for third-party invites so that
      it can send richer messages to the invitee (PR #446)
    
    * Cache the responses to ``/intialSync`` for 5 minutes. If a client
      retries a request to ``/initialSync`` before the a response was computed
      to the first request then the same response is used for both requests
      (PR #457)
    
    * Fix a bug where synapse would always request the signing keys of
      remote servers even when the key was cached locally (PR #452)
    * Fix 500 when pagination search results (PR #447)
    * Fix a bug where synapse was leaking raw email address in third-party invites
       (PR #448)
    
    Changes in synapse v0.12.0-rc2 (2015-12-14)
    ===========================================
    
    * Add caches for whether rooms have been forgotten by a user (PR #434)

      dependencies of synapse are on PyPI (PR #436)
    * Parallelise the processing of ``/sync`` requests (PR #437)
    * Fix race updating presence in ``/events`` (PR #444)
    * Fix bug back-populating search results (PR #441)
    * Fix bug calculating state in ``/sync`` requests (PR #442)
    
    Changes in synapse v0.12.0-rc1 (2015-12-10)
    ===========================================
    
    * Host the client APIs released as r0 by
      https://matrix.org/docs/spec/r0.0.0/client_server.html
      on paths prefixed by ``/_matrix/client/r0``. (PR #430, PR #415, PR #400)
    * Updates the client APIs to match r0 of the matrix specification.
    
      * All APIs return events in the new event format, old APIs also include
        the fields needed to parse the event using the old format for
        compatibility. (PR #402)
      * Search results are now given as a JSON array rather than
        a JSON object (PR #405)
      * Miscellaneous changes to search (PR #403, PR #406, PR #412)
      * Filter JSON objects may now be passed as query parameters to ``/sync``
        (PR #431)
      * Fix implementation of ``/admin/whois`` (PR #418)
      * Only include the rooms that user has left in ``/sync`` if the client
        requests them in the filter (PR #423)
      * Don't push for ``m.room.message`` by default (PR #411)
      * Add API for setting per account user data (PR #392)
      * Allow users to forget rooms (PR #385)
    
    * Performance improvements and monitoring:
    
      * Add per-request counters for CPU time spent on the main python thread.
        (PR #421, PR #420)
      * Add per-request counters for time spent in the database (PR #429)
      * Make state updates in the C+S API idempotent (PR #416)
      * Only fire ``user_joined_room`` if the user has actually joined. (PR #410)
      * Reuse a single http client, rather than creating new ones (PR #413)
    
    * Fixed a bug upgrading from older versions of synapse on postgresql (PR #417)

      could take several hours for servers to start talking to ressurected servers,
      even when they were receiving traffic from them (PR #393)

      where some clients would always use the fallback API if they did not
      recognize all login flows (PR #391)
