+Synapse 0.27.0 begins the process of rationalising metric names. 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. For more info see [here](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/metrics-howto.rst#block-and-response-metrics-renamed-for-0270)
