-Synapse vNext
-=============
+Synapse 1.64.0rc1 (2022-07-26)
+==============================
 
 As of this release, Synapse no longer allows the tasks of verifying email address ownership, and password reset confirmation, to be delegated to an identity server. For more information, see the [upgrade notes](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/v1.64/upgrade.html#upgrading-to-v1640).
 
+We have also stopped building `.deb` packages for Ubuntu 21.10 as it is no longer an active version of Ubuntu.
+
+
+Features
+--------
+
+- Improve error messages when media thumbnails cannot be served. ([\#13038](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13038))
+- Allow pagination from remote event after discovering it from [MSC3030](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/3030) `/timestamp_to_event`. ([\#13205](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13205))
+- Add a `room_type` field in the responses for the list room and room details admin APIs. Contributed by @andrewdoh. ([\#13208](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13208))
+- Add support for room version 10. ([\#13220](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13220))
+- Add per-room rate limiting for room joins. For each room, Synapse now monitors the rate of join events in that room, and throttles additional joins if that rate grows too large. ([\#13253](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13253), [\#13254](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13254), [\#13255](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13255), [\#13276](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13276))
+- Support Implicit TLS (TLS without using a STARTTLS upgrade, typically on port 465) for sending emails, enabled by the new option `force_tls`. Contributed by Jan Schär. ([\#13317](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13317))
+
+
+Bugfixes
+--------
+
+- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.15.0 where adding a user through the Synapse Admin API with a phone number would fail if the `enable_email_notifs` and `email_notifs_for_new_users` options were enabled. Contributed by @thomasweston12. ([\#13263](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13263))
+- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.40.0 where a user invited to a restricted room would be briefly unable to join. ([\#13270](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13270))
+- Fix a long-standing bug where, in rare instances, Synapse could store the incorrect state for a room after a state resolution. ([\#13278](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13278))
+- Fix a bug introduced in v1.18.0 where the `synapse_pushers` metric would overcount pushers when they are replaced. ([\#13296](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13296))
+- Disable autocorrection and autocapitalisation on the username text field shown during registration when using SSO. ([\#13350](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13350))
+- Update locked version of `frozendict` to 2.3.3, which has fixes for memory leaks affecting `/sync`. ([\#13284](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13284), [\#13352](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13352))
+
+
+Improved Documentation
+----------------------
+
+- Provide an example of using the Admin API. Contributed by @jejo86. ([\#13231](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13231))
+- Move the documentation for how URL previews work to the URL preview module. ([\#13233](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13233), [\#13261](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13261))
+- Add another `contrib` script to help set up worker processes. Contributed by @villepeh. ([\#13271](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13271))
+- Document that certain config options were added or changed in Synapse 1.62. Contributed by @behrmann. ([\#13314](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13314))
+- Document the new `rc_invites.per_issuer` throttling option added in Synapse 1.63. ([\#13333](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13333))
+- Mention that BuildKit is needed when building Docker images for tests. ([\#13338](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13338))
+- Improve Caddy reverse proxy documentation. ([\#13344](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13344))
+
+
+Deprecations and Removals
+-------------------------
+
+- Drop tables that were formerly used for groups/communities. ([\#12967](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12967))
+- Drop support for delegating email verification to an external server. ([\#13192](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13192))
+- Drop support for calling `/_matrix/client/v3/account/3pid/bind` without an `id_access_token`, which was not permitted by the spec. Contributed by @Vetchu. ([\#13239](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13239))
+- Stop building `.deb` packages for Ubuntu 21.10 (Impish Indri), which has reached end of life. ([\#13326](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13326))
+
+
