-# v26.10
-
-* Added support for new rich response messages used by the Muse AI bot.
-* Added support for bridging custom profile set for Muse.
-* Added automatic one-time resync of keys needed to decrypt Muse messages.
-* Added support for blocking and unblocking users on WhatsApp.
-* Added support for contact array messages (thanks to [@voska] in [#961]).
-* Added partial support for filling quoted message when sending replies to
-  WhatsApp.
-* Changed undecryptable message resends to only bridge as edits and never as new
-  messages, to avoid races if the message was deleted before the resend.
-* Changed login to wait for OTKs to be successfully uploaded, as the login will
-  fail if the bridge is stopped before that point.
-* Changed chat info syncing to not bridge mute status if app state sync is
-  failing.
-* Changed power levels to allow poll votes in read-only groups even if the room
-  is encrypted.
-* Fixed backfilled media retries not getting sent if configured for local time.
-* Fixed "delete for me" from WhatsApp not being bridged correctly in DMs.
-* Fixed very long WhatsApp messages not being bridged.
