# MSC3844: Remove "Mjolnir" (policy room) sharing mechanism
2+
3+
Way back when [MSC2313](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/2313) was written,
4+
it included a [sharing](https://spec.matrix.org/v1.3/client-server-api/#sharing-1) mechanism that
5+
never got used.
6+
7+
That sharing mechanism is to be removed from the specification due to lack of use and questionable
8+
technical approach. In practice, users and implementations have been handing out room aliases to
9+
policy rooms just fine.
10+
11+
Normally an MSC would propose deprecation followed by eventual removal, however seeing as the core
12+
team is aware of exactly zero implementations of this feature it feels safe to just outright remove.
