I think this is sane and very welcome. A few phrasing suggestions, and I'd like to double-check the stuff about /send.

Minor? Is .doc possibly for user-visible documentation changes rather than internal docstrings? (No strong opinions here.)

Probably but they are experienced by Synapse admins in their logs. This gives at least some context even if it's in the code.

I'm going to opt to leave it until someone has a stronger opinion.

Synapse 1.71.0 (2022-11-08)
===========================

Please note that, as announced in the release notes for Synapse 1.69.0, legacy Prometheus metric names are now disabled by default.
They will be removed altogether in Synapse 1.73.0.
If not already done, server administrators should update their dashboards and alerting rules to avoid using the deprecated metric names.
See the [upgrade notes](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/v1.71/upgrade.html#upgrading-to-v1710) for more details.

**Note:** in line with our [deprecation policy](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/deprecation_policy.html) for platform dependencies, this will be the last release to support PostgreSQL 10, which reaches upstream end-of-life on November 10th, 2022. Future releases of Synapse will require PostgreSQL 11+.

No significant changes since 1.71.0rc2.

Synapse 1.71.0rc2 (2022-11-04)

- Document the changes to monthly active user metrics due to deprecation of legacy Prometheus metric names. ([\matrix-org#14358](matrix-org#14358), [\matrix-org#14360](matrix-org#14360))

Deprecations and Removals
-------------------------

- Disable legacy Prometheus metric names by default. They can still be re-enabled for now, but they will be removed altogether in Synapse 1.73.0. ([\matrix-org#14353](matrix-org#14353))

Internal Changes
----------------

- Run unit tests against Python 3.11. ([\matrix-org#13812](matrix-org#13812))

- Enable write-ahead logging for SQLite installations. Contributed by [@asymmetric](https://github.com/asymmetric). ([\matrix-org#13897](matrix-org#13897))

- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.70.0 where clients were unable to PUT new [dehydrated devices](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2697). ([\matrix-org#14336](matrix-org#14336))

Improved Documentation
----------------------

- Explain how to disable the use of [`trusted_key_servers`](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/usage/configuration/config_documentation.html#trusted_key_servers). ([\matrix-org#13999](matrix-org#13999))
