C extensions that target the :ref:`Stable ABI <stable-abi>` can now be
part of the instance struct; and
- Switching from a ``PyInit_`` function to a new export hook,
:c:func:`PyModExport_* <PyModExport_modulename>`, introduced for this
- purpose in :pep:`793`.
+ purpose in :pep:`793`, with a new :c:type:`PySlot` structure
+ introduced in :pep:`820`.
+
+The reference documentation for these features is complete, but currently
+aimed at early adopters.
+A migration guide is planned for an upcoming beta release.
Note that Stable ABI does not offer all the functionality that CPython
has to offer.
* Add :c:func:`PyTuple_FromArray` to create a :class:`tuple` from an array.

* Add functions that are guaranteed to be safe for use in
:c:member:`~PyTypeObject.tp_traverse` handlers:
:c:func:`PyObject_GetTypeData_DuringGC`,
It should only be used for debugging.
