@ -8,6 +8,12 @@ This MSC proposes that the `required` flag for this parameter be removed, as
well as the "may be blank" clause in the description.
Note that the kicking and banning endpoints already have optional `reason`
parameters. The other endpoints mentioned in #2367 will likely also add
parameters. The other endpoints mentioned in [#2367](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2367) will also add
optional `reason` parameters, so it seems that it would be more more consistent
with the rest of the spec to make this optional as well.
## Backwards Compatibility
Since servers currently expect this field to be sent by all clients, making
this optional is a breaking change. Clients should send query the version of
the homeserver to determine whether they can safely omit this field.
