v2.5.2: Sydent 2.5.2 (2022-04-04)

This release of Sydent is the first to use poetry to maintain a locked set of dependency versions. The use of poetry is optional: administrators can continue to install from a wheel or using their own virtualenv.

Bugfixes

• Fix a bug where federation requests would fail early if a .well-known/matrix/server response contains an invalid type for m.server. Instead, try finding an SRV record, as mandated by the spec. (#473)
• Fix a bug in the casefolding script that would cause some deletions to be skipped if e-mail sending was enabled. (#489)
• Fix a bug introduced in Sydent 2.4.6 where errors communicating with OpenMarket's SMS API would be logged as successes, and all successes would be logged twice. (#490)

Improved Documentation

• Added a link to #sydent:matrix.org in the README so users know where to discuss sydent. Contributed by @clmnin. (#479)
