Full Release Notes
# Version 7.0.0-RC6: The last release candidate is here. Any future work will be segmented into PRs (whether by @jlucaso1 or I) and then tested heavily, then merged into master and then 7.0.0 will release. I don't have an ETA, but you can use this version now. Rc6 issues and things to tackle before main release: - Performance issues resulting from a lot of the LID migration commits and the transaction rewrite - App State Sync (many errors) - Up to 30x increase in binary reads (still benchmarking this my discovery is insane) - History sync - 1:1 parity with WA Web when it comes to a lot of things to decrease bans Changes that have been made since rc5: - increased socket reliability - Full Meta Coexistence support (pairing with coex, sending messages to someone with it, receiving messages from them, and also being in a group with someone who has it are all handled) - fetchWAWebVersion works again - less and less vectors for automation detection, should show reduced bans - Increased reliability and less crashes - patched fromMe in some scenarios - Increased signal reliability as well
