Neil Johnson 0f3614f0f6 Synapse 1.7.0rc1 (2019-12-09)
=============================
 
 Features
 --------
 
 - Implement per-room message retention policies. ([\#5815](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5815), [\#6436](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/6436))

 - Add `/admin/v2/users` endpoint with pagination. Contributed by Awesome Technologies Innovationslabor GmbH. ([\#5925](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5925))
 - Require User-Interactive Authentication for `/account/3pid/add`, meaning the user's password will be required to add a third-party ID to their account. ([\#6119](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/6119))
 - Implement the `/_matrix/federation/unstable/net.atleastfornow/state/<context>` API as drafted in MSC2314. ([\#6176](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/6176))
 - Configure privacy-preserving settings by default for the room directory. ([\#6354](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/6354))
 - Add ephemeral messages support by partially implementing [MSC2228](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2228). ([\#6409](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/6409))
 - Add support for [MSC 2367](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2367), which allows specifying a reason on all membership events. ([\#6434](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/6434))
