Rust Project goals for 2024
The Rust project has <a href="https://blog.rust-lang.org/2024/08/12/Project-goals.html" rel="nofollow">developed a
set of goals</a> for the latter half of 2024.
<a href="https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-project-goals/2024h2/rfl_stable.html" rel="nofollow">Rust
for Linux.</a> The <a href="https://rust-for-linux.com/" rel="nofollow">experimental support for Rust
development in the Linux kernel</a> is a watershed moment for Rust,
demonstrating to the world that Rust is indeed capable of targeting
all manner of low-level systems applications. And yet today that
support rests on a <a href="https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux/issues/2" rel="nofollow">number of
unstable features</a>, blocking the effort from ever going beyond
experimental status. For 2024H2 we will work to close the <a href="https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-project-goals/2024h2/rfl_stable.html#the-next-six-months" rel="nofollow">largest
gaps that block support</a>.
Other goals include completing the <a href="https://lwn.net/Articles/958792/" rel="nofollow">2024 Rust
Edition</a> and improving the language's async support.
