I tried to contact the release managers directly or via the mailing list:

22.1. adding git submodule
3.2. [coroutine2] add to testing
4.2. boost library part of next release (got the info that I've asked the
release managers)
5.2. [release-mgt] missing library
26.5. [branch master] add library to regression tests
29.5. adding boost.coroutine2 to branch master
31.5. [master] adding library to release (or at least master regression
test)?

The community decided that coroutine2 should become an additional library
beside of boost.coroutine:
