Spec for [MSC1704](#1704) Reference implementations: * Original: matrix-org/matrix-react-sdk#2250 * Modern recommendations: https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-react-sdk/blob/2ca281f6b7b735bc96945370584c5cb1b5f7e1f1/src/matrix-to.js#L29-L70 The only deviation from the original MSC is the recommendation for which servers to pick. The original MSC failed to consider server ACLs and IP addresses correctly, and during implementation it was realized that both of these cases should be handled. The core principles of the original MSC are left unaltered.

As a point of interest: I've personally seen less complaints about rooms being inaccessible since the change landed in Riot and adopted by more and more users. The implementation seems to work well enough as a stop gap for https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/issues/1579, which is still mentioned in the spec itself as there's room for improvement. |
