+
+    *) Bugfix: using asyncio.get_running_loop() instead of
+       asyncio.get_event_loop() when it's available to prevent errors in
+       some Python ASGI applications.
+
+    *) Bugfix: applications that make use of various low level APIs such as
+       pthreads could fail to work correctly.
+
+    *) Bugfix: websocket endianness detection for obscure operating systems.
