# MSC2788: Room version 6 as a default
|
||
|
4 years ago
|
|
||
|
|
Enough time has passed to allow the public federation to upgrade their servers to support room
|
||
|
|
version 6. This proposal aims to make v6 the default room version.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Proposal
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The specification adopts v6 as the suggested default room version, making no changes to the stability
|
||
|
|
of any room versions. As of writing, v5 is currently the suggested room version.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Room version 6 has the following specification: https://matrix.org/docs/spec/rooms/v6
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Potential issues
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Servers will be encouraged to update their config/internal defaults to use v6 instead of v5. This
|
||
|
|
is considered a good problem to have.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Alternatives
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
None relevant.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Security considerations
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
None relevant.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Unstable prefix
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
None relevant - servers can already choose a different default room version legally. This MSC
|
||
|
|
just formalizes v6 as the default.
