+- Issue #12892: The utf-16* and utf-32* encoders no longer allow surrogate code
+ points (U+D800-U+DFFF) to be encoded. The utf-32* decoders no longer decode
+ byte sequences that correspond to surrogate code points. The surrogatepass
+ error handler now works with the utf-16* and utf-32* codecs. Based on
+ patches by Victor Stinner and Kang-Hao (Kenny) Lu.

- reporting success on empty tests.
+- Issue #17828: The interpreter now attempts to chain errors that occur in
+ codec processing with a replacement exception of the same type that
+ includes the codec name in the error message. It ensures it only does this
+ when the creation of the replacement exception won't lose any information.
-- Issue #19440: Clean up test_capi by removing an unnecessary __future__
- import, converting from test_main to unittest.main, and running the
- _testcapi module tests within a unittest TestCase.
+- Issue #19466: Clear the frames of daemon threads earlier during the
+ Python shutdown to call objects destructors. So "unclosed file" resource
