Those who are `poetry install`ing from source using our lockfile should ensure their poetry version is 1.3.2 or higher; [see upgrade notes](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/release-v1.76/docs/upgrade.md#minimum-version-of-poetry-is-now-132).
Notes on faster joins
---------------------
The faster joins project sees the most benefit when joining a room with a large number of members (joined or historical). We expect it to be particularly useful for joining large public rooms like the [Matrix HQ](https://matrix.to/#/#matrix:matrix.org) or [Synapse Admins](https://matrix.to/#/#synapse:matrix.org) rooms.
After a faster join, Synapse considers that room "partially joined". In this state, you should be able to
- read incoming messages;
- see incoming state changes, e.g. room topic changes; and
- send messages, if the room is unencrypted.
Synapse has to spend more effort to complete the join in the background. Once this finishes, you will be able to
- send messages, if the room is in encrypted;
- retrieve room history from before your join, if permitted by the room settings; and
- access the full list of room members.
