[New-bugs-announce] [issue37651] Change of inheritance of asyncio.CancelledError needs documentation

[Gary van der Merwe]

New submission from Gary van der Merwe <garyvdm at gmail.com>:

asyncio.CancelledError inheritance was changed in 3.8. 

https://bugs.python.org/issue32528
https://github.com/python/cpython/commit/431b540bf79f0982559b1b0e420b1b085f667bb7

The documentation still instructs the user to perform a pattern needed before this change. The documentation should probably change to inform them of the change, and to let them know that pattern is only necessary prior to 3.8.
