View source for Pre-release protocol

This page documents the changes from release 1.21.1 (protocol 767) to the current release (1.21.3, protocol 768). The stable protocol documentation is currently lagging behind, and the changes documented here will be merged soon, once they are complete. The current pre-release (snapshot 24w44a) is not yet documented.

One who wishes to commandeer the merging of this into [[Protocol]] when an update is made must be sure to respect any changes that may have occurred to the respective packets there.
