 # Changelog
 
+## Dendrite 0.9.5 (2022-08-25)
+
+### Fixes
+
+* The roomserver will now correctly unreject previously rejected events if necessary when reprocessing
+* The handling of event soft-failure has been improved on the roomserver input by no longer applying rejection rules and still calculating state before the event if possible
+* The federation `/state` and `/state_ids` endpoints should now return the correct error code when the state isn't known instead of returning a HTTP 500
+* The federation `/event` should now return outlier events correctly instead of returning a HTTP 500
+* A bug in the federation backoff allowing zero intervals has been corrected
+* The `create-account` utility will no longer error if the homeserver URL ends in a trailing slash
+* A regression in `/sync` introduced in 0.9.4 should be fixed
+
