Words from the Core Team
summary
Rust reports concrete progress: 2018 Edition ships non‑lexical lifetimes, procedural macros, improved match and module ergonomics plus 1.0 releases of rustfmt and Clippy, and cargo fix eases upgrades. A 6,000‑person survey shows 30% use Rust professionally and 93% report no backward‑compatibility break. Governance faces scale problems after ~1,300 RFCs and long discussions; the 2019 roadmap prioritizes custom allocators, async/await, constant generics, generic associated types, specialization and custom cargo registries while polishing IDE support and compile times.
