A new data-fetching service runs lookups concurrently, ranks servers by membership popularity and recent reachability, and skips a request already in flight. Resolved outlier state, fetch and backoff decisions, and per-server reachability now survive a restart, so it stops re-asking the same uncacheable questions. An OIDC device authorization grant ( RFC 8628 ) lets a console or smart TV without a keyboard hand its login to a browser elsewhere. The MSC4191 account-management actions are complete with a deep-linked cross-signing reset, MSC3861 OAuth 2.0/OIDC is advertised on /versions , dynamic client registration is opt-in and validated, and device-scope binding now requires PKCE. One fix comes with an apology. Since 1.6.1, the ip_source change had been turning away bridges and other loopback clients; that is now fixed : they again bypass the configured ip_source , Unix socket included. Federation lookups recover better too: the room-summary fallback tries every via server , a failed remote publicRooms returns a 502 , and thanks to Juneโs report , a bad unix_socket_path is named in the startup error. June also gave /.well-known/matrix/support PGP and policy fields. Smaller spec work also lands: MSC3980 , MSC3860 , MSC4311 , MSC2659 , and a stable MSC4267 forget-on-leave capability, all tracked in the compliance list . The rest is community work. winyadeplaโs request to purge every room containing a user is now an admin command; dasha-uwu added an admin media preview debug command and fixed a setting that could switch off client-side decompression; BVollmerhaus documented how a proxy can slip into ip_source_trusted_subnets . Devices can now hold several access tokens, and media fetches respect CIDR denylists.
