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

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.
