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

Features
--------

- Implement per-room message retention policies. ([\#5815](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5815), [\#6436](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/6436))

- Require User-Interactive Authentication for `/account/3pid/add`, meaning the user's password will be required to add a third-party ID to their account. ([\#6119](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/6119))
- Implement the `/_matrix/federation/unstable/net.atleastfornow/state/<context>` API as drafted in MSC2314. ([\#6176](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/6176))

- Add support for [MSC 2367](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2367), which allows specifying a reason on all membership events. ([\#6434](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/6434))
