+Synapse 1.55.0rc1 (2022-03-15)
+==============================
+
+This release removes a workaround introduced in Synapse 1.50.0 for Mjolnir compatibility. **This breaks compatibility with Mjolnir 1.3.1 and earlier. ([\#11700](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11700))**; Mjolnir users should upgrade Mjolnir before upgrading Synapse to this version.
+
+Features
+--------
+
+- Add third-party rules callbacks `check_can_shutdown_room` and `check_can_deactivate_user`. ([\#12028](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12028))
+- Improve performance of logging in for large accounts. ([\#12132](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12132))
+- Add experimental env var `SYNAPSE_ASYNC_IO_REACTOR` that causes Synapse to use the asyncio reactor for Twisted. ([\#12135](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12135))
+- Support the stable identifiers from [MSC3440](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/3440): threads. ([\#12151](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12151))
+- Add a new Jinja2 template filter to extract the local part of an email address. ([\#12212](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12212))
+
+
+Bugfixes
+--------
+
+- Use the proper serialization format for bundled thread aggregations. The bug has existed since Synapse v1.48.0. ([\#12090](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12090))
+- Fix a long-standing bug when redacting events with relations. ([\#12113](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12113), [\#12121](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12121), [\#12130](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12130), [\#12189](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12189))
+- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.7.2 whereby background updates are never run with the default background batch size. ([\#12157](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12157))
+- Fix a bug where non-standard information was returned from the `/hierarchy` API. Introduced in Synapse v1.41.0. ([\#12175](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12175))
+- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.54.0 that broke background updates on sqlite homeservers while search was disabled. ([\#12215](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12215))
+- Fix a long-standing bug when a `filter` argument with `event_fields` which did not include the `unsigned` field could result in a 500 error on `/sync`. ([\#12234](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12234))
+
+
+Improved Documentation
+----------------------
+
+- Fix complexity checking config example in [Resource Constrained Devices](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/v1.54/other/running_synapse_on_single_board_computers.html) docs page. ([\#11998](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11998))
+- Improve documentation for demo scripts. ([\#12143](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12143))
+- Updates to the Room DAG concepts development document. ([\#12179](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12179))
+- Document that the `typing`, `to_device`, `account_data`, `receipts`, and `presence` stream writer can only be used on a single worker. ([\#12196](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12196))
+- Document that contributors can sign off privately by email. ([\#12204](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12204))
+
