Changes in synapse v0.27.3-rc2 (2018-04-09)
==========================================

v0.27.3-rc1 used a stale version of the develop branch so the changelog overstates
the functionality. v0.27.3-rc2 is up to date, rc1 should be ignored.

Changes in synapse v0.27.3-rc1 (2018-04-09)
=======================================

Notable changes include API support for joinability of groups. Also new metrics
and phone home stats. Phone home stats include better visibility of system usage
so we can tweak synpase to work better for all users rather than our own experience
with matrix.org. Also, recording 'r30' stat which is the measure we use to track
overal growth of the Matrix ecosystem. It is defined as:-

Counts the number of native 30 day retained users, defined as:-
         * Users who have created their accounts more than 30 days
         * Where last seen at most 30 days ago
         * Where account creation and last_seen are > 30 days"
