You and many others... the lang team has been hard at work. We want it to ship, but we also want to get it right. It will be a huge deal, for sure.
I read somewhere in all the discussions that Carl was hesitant to go all-in on futures 0.3 (those are definitely landing in std, right?) in tokio before some additional ergonomics had landed, possibly some language feature among them but I may misremember...
Do you know the list of things and possibly their tracking issues? Futures in std, async/await, etc, something something more? Would love to be able to keep track and follow along :)

Yes.

I know you may not have your fingers in this particular flower pot, so the "you" was directed at the entire Rust community. However, while we're here you still get a big personal thanks -- your Rust for Rubyists got me hooked those years back and the docs/book (1st ed and then 2nd ed with Carol) work you've done since is nothing short of amazing -- and with these latest developments I hope you find a great place to continue your work <3
Show me serious embedded device mfgs using Rust. Actually using. Not some testimonial on the Rust site. The real truth is no company is going to use it until there is serious use will happen until there is IDE support. Segger is a company large enough to be taken serious and unlike Keil or IAR small enough to get it done.
Great things start with hobbiest wierdos. IMO... once you stop looking for things to be offended by you can get to work, son.
