+===================
+
+Bug fixes
+---------
+
+- Fixed server checks for circular symbolic links to be compatible with Python 3.13 -- by :user:`steverep`.
+
+
+  *Related issues and pull requests on GitHub:*
+  :issue:`8565`.
+
+
+
+- Fixed request body not being read when ignoring an Upgrade request -- by :user:`Dreamsorcerer`.
+
+
+  *Related issues and pull requests on GitHub:*
+  :issue:`8597`.
+
+
+
+- Fixed an edge case where shutdown would wait for timeout when the handler was already completed -- by :user:`Dreamsorcerer`.
+
+
+  *Related issues and pull requests on GitHub:*
+  :issue:`8611`.
+
+
+
+- Fixed connecting to ``npipe://``, ``tcp://``, and ``unix://`` urls -- by :user:`bdraco`.
+
+
+  *Related issues and pull requests on GitHub:*
+  :issue:`8632`.
+
+
+
+- Fixed WebSocket ping tasks being prematurely garbage collected -- by :user:`bdraco`.
+
+  There was a small risk that WebSocket ping tasks would be prematurely garbage collected because the event loop only holds a weak reference to the task. The garbage collection risk has been fixed by holding a strong reference to the task. Additionally, the task is now scheduled eagerly with Python 3.12+ to increase the chance it can be completed immediately and avoid having to hold any references to the task.
+
+
+  *Related issues and pull requests on GitHub:*
+  :issue:`8641`.
+
+
+
+- Fixed incorrectly following symlinks for compressed file variants -- by :user:`steverep`.

+
+  *Related issues and pull requests on GitHub:*
+  :issue:`8652`.
+
+

+

+
+
+  *Related issues and pull requests on GitHub:*
+  :issue:`8551`.
+
+
+
+
+Miscellaneous internal changes
+------------------------------
+

+  :issue:`8608`.
+
+
+
