+Upgrading to v1.1
+=================
+
+Synapse 1.1 removes support for older Python and PostgreSQL versions, as
+outlined in `our deprecation notice <https://matrix.org/blog/2019/04/08/synapse-deprecating-postgres-9-4-and-python-2-x>`_.
+
+Minimum Python Version
+----------------------
+
+Synapse v1.1 has a minimum Python requirement of Python 3.5. Python 3.6 or
+Python 3.7 are recommended as they have improved internal string handling,
+significantly reducing memory usage.
+
+If you use current versions of the Matrix.org-distributed Debian packages or
+Docker images, action is not required.
+
+If you install Synapse in a Python virtual environment, please see "Upgrading to
+v0.34.0" for notes on setting up a new virtualenv under Python 3.
+
+Minimum PostgreSQL Version
+--------------------------
+
+If using PostgreSQL under Synapse, you will need to use PostgreSQL 9.5 or above.
+Please see the
+`PostgreSQL documentation <https://www.postgresql.org/docs/11/upgrading.html>`_
+for more details on upgrading your database.
+
+Upgrading to v1.0
+=================
+
+Validation of TLS certificates
+------------------------------
+
+Synapse v1.0 is the first release to enforce
+validation of TLS certificates for the federation API. It is therefore
+essential that your certificates are correctly configured. See the `FAQ
+<docs/MSC1711_certificates_FAQ.md>`_ for more information.
+
+Note, v1.0 installations will also no longer be able to federate with servers
+that have not correctly configured their certificates.
+
+In rare cases, it may be desirable to disable certificate checking: for
+example, it might be essential to be able to federate with a given legacy
+server in a closed federation. This can be done in one of two ways:-
+
+* Configure the global switch ``federation_verify_certificates`` to ``false``.
+* Configure a whitelist of server domains to trust via ``federation_certificate_verification_whitelist``.
+
+See the `sample configuration file <docs/sample_config.yaml>`_
+for more details on these settings.
+
+Email
+-----
+When a user requests a password reset, Synapse will send an email to the
+user to confirm the request.
+
+Previous versions of Synapse delegated the job of sending this email to an
+identity server. If the identity server was somehow malicious or became
+compromised, it would be theoretically possible to hijack an account through
+this means.
+
+Therefore, by default, Synapse v1.0 will send the confirmation email itself. If
+Synapse is not configured with an SMTP server, password reset via email will be
+disabled.
+
+To configure an SMTP server for Synapse, modify the configuration section
+headed ``email``, and be sure to have at least the ``smtp_host``, ``smtp_port``
+and ``notif_from`` fields filled out. You may also need to set ``smtp_user``,
+``smtp_pass``, and ``require_transport_security``.
+
+If you are absolutely certain that you wish to continue using an identity
+server for password resets, set ``trust_identity_server_for_password_resets`` to ``true``.
+
+See the `sample configuration file <docs/sample_config.yaml>`_
+for more details on these settings.

 # MSC1711 Certificates FAQ
 
+## Historical Note
+This document was originally written to guide server admins through the upgrade
+path towards Synapse 1.0. Specifically,
+[MSC1711](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/blob/master/proposals/1711-x509-for-federation.md)
+required that all servers present valid TLS certificates on their federation
+API. Admins were encouraged to achieve compliance from version 0.99.0 (released
+in February 2019) ahead of version 1.0 (released June 2019) enforcing the
+certificate checks.
+
+Much of what follows is now outdated since most admins will have already
+upgraded, however it may be of use to those with old installs returning to the
+project.
+
+If you are setting up a server from scratch you almost certainly should look at
+the [installation guide](INSTALL.md) instead.
+
+## Introduction
 The goal of Synapse 0.99.0 is to act as a stepping stone to Synapse 1.0.0. It
 supports the r0.1 release of the server to server specification, but is

 Note that the target of a SRV record cannot be an alias (CNAME record): it has to point

+### Delegation FAQ
+#### When do I need a SRV record or .well-known URI?
+
+If your homeserver listens on the default federation port (8448), and your
+`server_name` points to the host that your homeserver runs on, you do not need an SRV
+record or `.well-known/matrix/server` URI.
+
+For instance, if you registered `example.com` and pointed its DNS A record at a
+fresh server, you could install Synapse on that host,
+giving it a `server_name` of `example.com`, and once [ACME](acme.md) support is enabled,
+it would automatically generate a valid TLS certificate for you via Let's Encrypt
+and no SRV record or .well-known URI would be needed.
+
+This is the common case, although you can add an SRV record or
+`.well-known/matrix/server` URI for completeness if you wish.
+
+**However**, if your server does not listen on port 8448, or if your `server_name`
+does not point to the host that your homeserver runs on, you will need to let
+other servers know how to find it. The way to do this is via .well-known or an
+SRV record.
+
+#### I have created a .well-known URI. Do I still need an SRV record?
+
+As of Synapse 0.99, Synapse will first check for the existence of a .well-known
+URI and follow any delegation it suggests. It will only then check for the
+existence of an SRV record.
+
+That means that the SRV record will often be redundant. However, you should
+remember that there may still be older versions of Synapse in the federation
+which do not understand .well-known URIs, so if you removed your SRV record
+you would no longer be able to federate with them.
+
+It is therefore best to leave the SRV record in place for now. Synapse 0.34 and
+earlier will follow the SRV record (and not care about the invalid
+certificate). Synapse 0.99 and later will follow the .well-known URI, with the
+correct certificate chain.
+
+#### Can I manage my own certificates rather than having Synapse renew certificates itself?
+
+Yes, you are welcome to manage your certificates yourself. Synapse will only
+attempt to obtain certificates from Let's Encrypt if you configure it to do
+so.The only requirement is that there is a valid TLS cert present for
+federation end points.
+
+#### Do you still recommend against using a reverse proxy on the federation port?
+
+We no longer actively recommend against using a reverse proxy. Many admins will
+find it easier to direct federation traffic to a reverse proxy and manage their
+own TLS certificates, and this is a supported configuration.
+
+See [reverse_proxy.rst](reverse_proxy.rst) for information on setting up a
+reverse proxy.
+
+#### Do I still need to give my TLS certificates to Synapse if I am using a reverse proxy?
+
+Practically speaking, this is no longer necessary.
+
+If you are using a reverse proxy for all of your TLS traffic, then you can set
+`no_tls: True` in the Synapse config. In that case, the only reason Synapse
+needs the certificate is to populate a legacy `tls_fingerprints` field in the
+federation API. This is ignored by Synapse 0.99.0 and later, and the only time
+pre-0.99 Synapses will check it is when attempting to fetch the server keys -
+and generally this is delegated via `matrix.org`, which will be running a modern
+version of Synapse.
+
+#### Do I need the same certificate for the client and federation port?
+
+No. There is nothing stopping you from using different certificates,
+particularly if you are using a reverse proxy. However, Synapse will use the
+same certificate on any ports where TLS is configured.

+Building full schema dumps
+==========================
+
+These schemas need to be made from a database that has had all background updates run.
+
+Postgres
+--------
+
+$ pg_dump --format=plain --schema-only --no-tablespaces --no-acl --no-owner $DATABASE_NAME| sed -e '/^--/d' -e 's/public\.//g' -e '/^SET /d' -e '/^SELECT /d' > full.sql.postgres
+
+SQLite
+------
+
+$ sqlite3 $DATABASE_FILE ".schema" > full.sql.sqlite
+
+After
+-----
+
+Delete the CREATE statements for "sqlite_stat1", "schema_version", "applied_schema_deltas", and "applied_module_schemas".
