Async-std v1.7.0 has been released!

https://github.com/async-rs/async-std/releases/tag/v1.7.0

Hey all,

We've released async-std v1.7.0 today. This is a fairly small patch; the main feature added is a new tokio-03 flag that enables compatibility with the new Tokio 0.3 runtime.

Additionally we've updated our dependencies, which is where much of the improvements to the runtime happen these days.

For a future release we're considering running another beta chain of releases. We're looking to fix issues with our "unstable" channel implementation by re-exporting async-channel and stabilizing it under a new async_std::channel submodule. This matches what we expect the std::sync split may turn into (if channels are kept). But because our "unstable" channel has been around for so long, this will require a grace period to test and upgrade before stabilization.

Anyway, we hope you enjoy the latest version of async-std!
