I signed my CLA a few days ago - bugs.python.org now shows it as processed. Could a dev update the label?

@MaxwellDupre, just so you know, the beta release for 3.11was released today, meaning 3.11 is now in feature freeze. 3.11 is now only accepting bugfixes, meaning new features can now only be added to 3.12.

I got a somewhat skeptical review in#76809 so I'm not sure what the path forward might be. Happy to update it to 3.12 but I don't know that it's ever going to make it in, even updated.

I am neither a core developer (I'm a triager) nor a frequent user of thehttp module, so I can't really comment on that, I'm afraid :/
