Note that this release includes significant changes around 3pid
verification. Administrators are reminded to review the [upgrade notes](UPGRADE.rst#upgrading-to-v140).

Features
--------

- Changes to 3pid verification:
  - Add the ability to send registration emails from the homeserver rather than delegating to an identity server.

-Code Style
-==========
-
-Formatting tools
-----------------
-
-The Synapse codebase uses a number of code formatting tools in order to
-quickly and automatically check for formatting (and sometimes logical) errors
-in code.
-
-The necessary tools are detailed below.
-
-- **black**
-
-  The Synapse codebase uses `black <https://pypi.org/project/black/>`_ as an
-  opinionated code formatter, ensuring all comitted code is properly
-  formatted.
-
-  First install ``black`` with::
-
-    pip install --upgrade black
-
-  Have ``black`` auto-format your code (it shouldn't change any functionality)
-  with::
-
-    black . --exclude="\.tox|build|env"
-
-- **flake8**
-
-  ``flake8`` is a code checking tool. We require code to pass ``flake8`` before being merged into the codebase.
-
-  Install ``flake8`` with::
-
-    pip install --upgrade flake8
-
-  Check all application and test code with::
-
-    flake8 synapse tests
-
-- **isort**
-
-  ``isort`` ensures imports are nicely formatted, and can suggest and
-  auto-fix issues such as double-importing.
-
-  Install ``isort`` with::
-
-    pip install --upgrade isort
-
-  Auto-fix imports with::
-
-    isort -rc synapse tests
-
-  ``-rc`` means to recursively search the given directories.
-
-It's worth noting that modern IDEs and text editors can run these tools
-automatically on save. It may be worth looking into whether this
-functionality is supported in your editor for a more convenient development
-workflow. It is not, however, recommended to run ``flake8`` on save as it
-takes a while and is very resource intensive.
-
-General rules
--------------
-
-- **Naming**:
-
-  - Use camel case for class and type names
-  - Use underscores for functions and variables.
-
-- **Docstrings**: should follow the `google code style
-  <https://google.github.io/styleguide/pyguide.html#38-comments-and-docstrings>`_.
-  This is so that we can generate documentation with `sphinx
-  <http://sphinxcontrib-napoleon.readthedocs.org/en/latest/>`_. See the
-  `examples
-  <http://sphinxcontrib-napoleon.readthedocs.io/en/latest/example_google.html>`_
-  in the sphinx documentation.
-
-- **Imports**:
-
-  - Imports should be sorted by ``isort`` as described above.
-
-  - Prefer to import classes and functions rather than packages or modules.
-
-    Example::
-
-      from synapse.types import UserID
-      ...
-      user_id = UserID(local, server)
-
-    is preferred over::
-
-      from synapse import types
-      ...
-      user_id = types.UserID(local, server)
-
-    (or any other variant).
-
-    This goes against the advice in the Google style guide, but it means that
-    errors in the name are caught early (at import time).
-
-  - Avoid wildcard imports (``from synapse.types import *``) and relative
-    imports (``from .types import UserID``).
-
-Configuration file format
--------------------------
-
-The `sample configuration file <./sample_config.yaml>`_ acts as a reference to
-Synapse's configuration options for server administrators. Remember that many
-readers will be unfamiliar with YAML and server administration in general, so
-that it is important that the file be as easy to understand as possible, which
-includes following a consistent format.
-
-Some guidelines follow:
-
-* Sections should be separated with a heading consisting of a single line
-  prefixed and suffixed with ``##``. There should be **two** blank lines
-  before the section header, and **one** after.
-
-* Each option should be listed in the file with the following format:
-
-  * A comment describing the setting. Each line of this comment should be
-    prefixed with a hash (``#``) and a space.
-
-    The comment should describe the default behaviour (ie, what happens if
-    the setting is omitted), as well as what the effect will be if the
-    setting is changed.
-
-    Often, the comment end with something like "uncomment the
-    following to \<do action>".
-
-  * A line consisting of only ``#``.
-
-  * A commented-out example setting, prefixed with only ``#``.
-
-    For boolean (on/off) options, convention is that this example should be
-    the *opposite* to the default (so the comment will end with "Uncomment
-    the following to enable [or disable] \<feature\>." For other options,
-    the example should give some non-default value which is likely to be
-    useful to the reader.
-
-* There should be a blank line between each option.
-
-* Where several settings are grouped into a single dict, *avoid* the
-  convention where the whole block is commented out, resulting in comment
-  lines starting ``# #``, as this is hard to read and confusing to
-  edit. Instead, leave the top-level config option uncommented, and follow
-  the conventions above for sub-options. Ensure that your code correctly
-  handles the top-level option being set to ``None`` (as it will be if no
-  sub-options are enabled).
-
-* Lines should be wrapped at 80 characters.

-Example::
-
-    ## Frobnication ##
-
-    # The frobnicator will ensure that all requests are fully frobnicated.
-    # To enable it, uncomment the following.
-    #
-    #frobnicator_enabled: true
-
-    # By default, the frobnicator will frobnicate with the default frobber.
-    # The following will make it use an alternative frobber.
-    #
-    #frobincator_frobber: special_frobber
-
-    # Settings for the frobber
-    #
-    frobber:
-       # frobbing speed. Defaults to 1.
-       #
-       #speed: 10
-
-       # frobbing distance. Defaults to 1000.
-       #
-       #distance: 100
