Rust Leadership Council Update - July 2023
The article provides an update on the progress of the Rust Leadership Council. The council has been working on establishing the basic infrastructure for the group, including regular meetings and a process for raising agenda items. They have also set up a team repository and are in the process of transitioning from the former Rust leadership structures.
The council has been holding weekly meetings and publishing minutes from each meeting. They have also formed small groups called "committees" to focus on specific work items. The committees bring their work to the full council for discussion and consent. Currently, there are committees for electing Project Directors and council librarians.
The council has created a GitHub repository for all their documentation, including procedures and meeting minutes. They have also approved RFC 3355, which establishes the need for a Rust specification and the hiring of an editor for the specification.
Developers who are interested in following the council's progress can join the public council stream on Zulip to contribute to the discussion. The council is also open to feedback and ideas from the community.
This update showcases the efforts of the Rust Leadership Council in establishing a strong foundation for the Rust programming language and involving the community in decision-making processes.
