 Features
 --------
 
 - Changes to 3pid verification:
   - Add the ability to send registration emails from the homeserver rather than delegating to an identity server.

=============================

Note that this release includes significant changes around 3pid
verification. Administrators are reminded to review the [upgrade notes](UPGRADE.rst#upgrading-to-v140).

Features
--------

- Changes to 3pid verification:
  - Add the ability to send registration emails from the homeserver rather than delegating to an identity server.

Remove the requirement to authenticate for /admin/server_version. ()
This endpoint isn't much use for its intended purpose if you first need to get
yourself an admin's auth token.

I've restricted it to the `/_synapse/admin` path to make it a bit easier to
lock down for those concerned about exposing this information. I don't imagine
anyone is using it in anger currently.
