Rust Maintainers Team

Supporting Rust Maintenance

RustNL's new Rust Maintainers Team helps maintain the Rust Programming Language, including the compiler, standard library, tools, and more.

Maintenance is the groundwork that is crucial for Rust’s sustainability, its pace of development, and to attract new contributors.

We are looking for organizations interested in supporting Rust maintenance. Check our sponsor prospectus for details.
