+Block and response metrics renamed for 0.27.0
+---------------------------------------------
+
+Synapse 0.27.0 begins the process of rationalising the duplicate ``*:count``
+metrics reported for the resource tracking for code blocks and HTTP requests.
+
+At the same time, the corresponding ``*:total`` metrics are being renamed, as
+the ``:total`` suffix no longer makes sense in the absence of a corresponding
+``:count`` metric.
+
+To enable a graceful migration path, this release just adds new names for the
+metrics being renamed. A future release will remove the old ones.
+
+The following table shows the new metrics, and the old metrics which they are
+replacing.
