@mosquito Thanks for your submission! Only taking a look now… Could we look at fixing the alphabetical ordering for this new entry?

I think this is an interesting addition to consider. I like the narrow focus, and this bridge could be useful to others as well. Are you still using it / do you know of people using it yet?

Also some interesting discussion / context on ASGI support in aiohttp — aio-libs/aiohttp#2902. The approach taken by aiohttp-asgi corresponds to that presented in aio-libs/aiohttp#2902 (comment) or aio-libs/aiohttp#2902 (comment) — so it sounds pretty sane.

The first step for anything like this is writing a compatibility shim that would present it as an aiohttp application - that's something that can be done outside of either of our projects (channels or aiohttp) and then released separately. If someone is really keen enough to want to work on that, let me know and I would be happy to advise.
