The Rust programming language, which has been gaining traction lately as a mechanism for building safe, high-performance, system-level software, is now under the jurisdiction of the Rust Foundation, an independent, non-profit organization chartered to steward the language and the ecosystem around it. In a bulletin published February 8, the Rust project is heralding the arrangement as the arrival of Rust as an enterprise-grade, production-ready technology. Key to the organization is a supporting a set of maintainers to govern and develop the project. [ The arrangement includes a financial commitment from a number of global companies and board of directors representatives from longtime Rust sponsor Mozilla, Amazon Web Services, Google, Microsoft, and Huawei. Five directors have been drawn from project leadership, with two representing the Rust Core Team and three from project areas including reliability, quality, and collaboration.
