[Python-Dev] API design: where to add async variants of existing stdlib APIs?

Please don't put code using asyncio in Python stdlib yet. The Python
language is still changing rapidly to get new async features
(async/await keywords, async generators, etc.), and asyncio also
evolved quickly.

I suggest to create 3rd party modules on PyPI. It became easy to pull
dependencies using pip and virtualenv.

It seems like https://github.com/aio-libs is the home of many asyncio libraries.
