-------------
When a client logs in, they may have a list of rooms which they have already joined. These rooms
may also have a list of events associated with them. The purpose of 'syncing' is to present the
current room and event information in a convenient, compact manner. There are two APIs provided:
current room and event information in a convenient, compact manner. The events returned are not
limited to room events; presence events will also be returned. There are two APIs provided:
- ``/initialSync`` : A global sync which will present room and event information for all rooms
the user has joined.

Getting events for a room
-------------------------
There are several APIs provided to ``GET`` events for a room:
``/rooms/<room id>/state/<event type>/<state key>``
Description:
Get the state event identified.
Response format:
A JSON object representing the state event **content**.
Example:
``/rooms/!room:domain.com/state/m.room.name`` returns ``{ "name": "Room name" }``
``/rooms/<room id>/state``
Description:
Get all state events for a room.
Response format:
``[ { state event }, { state event }, ... ]``
Example:
TODO
``/rooms/<room id>/members``
Description:
Get all ``m.room.member`` state events.
Response format:
``{ "start": "token", "end": "token", "chunk": [ { m.room.member event }, ... ] }``

Description:
The membership state of a user is automatically set when using the membership APIs:
``/rooms/<room id>/invite``, ``/rooms/<room id>/join`` and ``/rooms/<room id>/leave``.
See the "Rooms" section for how to use those APIs.
Adjusts the membership state for a user in a room. It is preferable to use the
membership APIs (``/rooms/<room id>/invite`` etc) when performing membership actions
rather than adjusting the state directly as there are a restricted set of valid
transformations. For example, user A cannot force user B to join a room, and trying
to force this state change directly will fail. See the "Rooms" section for how to
use the membership APIs.
