+- Issue #25304: Add asyncio.run_coroutine_threadsafe().  This lets you
+  submit a coroutine to a loop from another thread, returning a
+  concurrent.futures.Future.  By Vincent Michel.

 - Issue #25232: Fix CGIRequestHandler to split the query from the URL at the
   first question mark (?) rather than the last. Patch from Xiang Zhang.
