Synapse 1.28.0rc1 (2021-02-19)

==============================
 
 Note that this release drops support for ARMv7 in the official Docker images, due to repeated problems building for ARMv7 (and the associated maintenance burden this entails).
 
 This release also fixes the documentation included in v1.27.0 around the callback URI for SAML2 identity providers. If your server is configured to use single sign-on via a SAML2 IdP, you may need to make configuration changes. Please review [UPGRADE.rst](UPGRADE.rst) for more details on these changes.
 
 Removal warning
 ---------------
 
 The v1 list accounts API is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.
 This API was undocumented and misleading. It can be replaced by the
 [v2 list accounts API](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/release-v1.28.0/docs/admin_api/user_admin_api.rst#list-accounts),
 which has been available since Synapse 1.7.0 (2019-12-13).
 
 Please check if you're using any scripts which use the admin API and replace
 `GET /_synapse/admin/v1/users/<user_id>` with `GET /_synapse/admin/v2/users`.
 
 Features
 --------
 
 - New admin API to get the context of an event: `/_synapse/admin/rooms/{roomId}/context/{eventId}`. ([\#9150](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9150))
 - Further improvements to the user experience of registration via single sign-on. ([\#9300](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9300), [\#9301](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9301))
 - Add hook to spam checker modules that allow checking file uploads and remote downloads. ([\#9311](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9311))
 - Add support for receiving OpenID Connect authentication responses via form `POST`s rather than `GET`s. ([\#9376](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9376))
 - Add the shadow-banning status to the admin API for user info. ([\#9400](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9400))
