+PEP 654: Exception Groups and ``except*``
+-----------------------------------------
+
+:pep:`654` introduces language features that enable a program
+to raise and handle multiple unrelated exceptions simultaneously.
+The builtin types :exc:`ExceptionGroup` and :exc:`BaseExceptionGroup`
+make it possible to group exceptions and raise them together,
+and the new :keyword:`except* <except_star>` syntax generalizes
+:keyword:`except` to match subgroups of exception groups.
+
+See :pep:`654` for more details.
