I am currently working on adding this to the Matrix JS SDK. This is an extension to an existing endpoint. The same would probably apply to the function call in the SDK: Current plan is to add an option tot he redact call. How do you think the SDK should behave in this case?

Hey @weeman1337, this is probably something the Element Web team would be better positioned to answer (since it's an implementation detail), but I would expect clients to check for server support and only show the feature to the user if there is server-side support for it. |
- Update title - Correct the provided example, and clarify some use cases
…n must be updated
- rename the new property `with_relations` with `with_rel_types` (to prevent us from introducing a new term ("relations") to refer to event relationships). Only the stable name is changed, we keep the existing unstable one.
- introduce a catch-all `"*"` value, which if found in the list means "any relation type"

@richvdh @turt2live FYI I resolved all the pending discussions on this MSC with my 2 last commits.

| If an event that matches the redaction criteria comes down federation after | ||
| redaction requests has completed, the server must attempt to redact it on behalf | ||
| of the redaction request's sender. |

The Synapse PR referenced in the PR description (matrix-org/synapse#14260) says:
This implementation is lacking a way to keep watch for incoming events that match the redaction criteria after the redaction request finishes, that'll come in a separate PR.
Is there any indication that this second part has happened? If not, then I don't think that counts as a complete implementation of the MSC and we should remove those parts from the MSC.

I would let the backend team think about this use case before deciding to remove or not this part (some details)
| Homeservers which support this MSC should indicate it by adding | ||
| `org.matrix.msc3912` and `org.matrix.msc3912.stable` in the response to `GET | ||
| /_matrix/client/versions` requests. |

presumably there is some difference between org.matrix.msc3912 and org.matrix.msc3912.stable? Please make it explicit what that difference is.

(I think https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/blob/main/proposals/3827-space-explore.md#unstable-prefix does a decent job of this -- in particular it explains what clients should do at each stage)

are we sure we need org.matrix.msc3912.stable ? We should only spec a "stable" unstable_feature if we absolutely need to get this feature into widespread use before homeserver implementations support the spec version which includes this.
There was a problem hiding this comment.
FYI I decided to remove the "stable" flag (see 1b3176c)
I consider the homeservers will still support the unstable attribute org.matrix.msc3912.with_relations until the clients are updated to check the presence of the spec version, that supports the MSC
