About Rocket.Chat
Rocket.Chat is stabilizing 8.5.0 — the feature payload landed in rc.0; the recent RCs are bump-and-harden.
Rocket.Chat is in the release-candidate stretch for 8.5.0. The substantive changes — attribute-based access control (ABAC) admin tabs, phishing-resistant server-side OAuth with PKCE and stronger 2FA, an experimental SDK-over-DDP transport, and a per-room search index option — landed in rc.0. Every RC since (rc.1 through rc.6) is a dependency version bump, with one small fix letting bot agents skip the chat-limit lock.
