Dendrite 0.5.1

on GitHub

Features

• Experimental (although incomplete) support for joining version 8 and 9 rooms
• State resolution v2 optimisations (close to 20% speed improvement thanks to reduced allocations)
• Optimisations made to the federation /send endpoint which avoids duplicate work, reduces CPU usage and smooths out incoming federation
• The sync API now consumes less CPU when generating sync responses (optimised SelectStateInRange)
• Support for serving the .well-known/matrix/server endpoint from within Dendrite itself (contributed by twentybit)
• Support for thumbnailing WebP media (contributed by hacktivista)

Fixes

• The /publicRooms handler now handles POST requests in addition to GET correctly
• Only valid canonical aliases will be returned in the /publicRooms response
• The media API now correctly handles max_file_size_bytes being configured to 0 (contributed by database64128)
• Unverifiable auth events in /send_join responses no longer result in a panic
• Build issues on Windows are now resolved (contributed by S7evinK)
• The default power levels in a room now set the invite level to 50, as per the spec
• A panic has been fixed when malformed messages are received in the key change consumers
