# MSC3375: Room Version 9
2+
3+
A new room version, `9`, is proposed using [room version 8](https://spec.matrix.org/unstable/rooms/v8/)
4+
as a base and incorporating the following:
5+
6+
The redaction rules for room version 9 are updated, such that `m.room.member`
7+
events allow the `join_authorised_via_users_server` key in addition to the
8+
`membership` key.
9+
10+
Though other MSCs are capable of being included in this version, they do not have
11+
sufficient implementation to be considered for this room version. A future room
12+
version may include them.
13+
14+
Room version `9` upon being added to the specification shall be considered stable.
15+
No other room versions are affected by this MSC.
16+
17+
## Background
18+
19+
Protecting this key from redaction was missing in [MSC3083](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/blob/main/proposals/3083-restricted-rooms.md).
20+
By redacting it, new servers which join a room are unable to properly authorise
21+
`m.room.member` events which include the `join_authorised_via_users_server` key
22+
and have been redacted. This can cause a split-brained room where some servers
23+
believe a member is joined and other servers do not see the member in the room.
24+
25+
Note that a new room version is necessary since this will change that event ID
26+
calculation of the `m.room.member` event (and thus is not backwards compatible).
