Just remembering this deck and thought it might be interesting to this audience. This is the very first public documentation about Rust (Servo is not actually defined in this deck...), Graydon's slides from the Mozilla Summit 2010, dated 2010/07/07.

As far as I can tell, beyond this talk, there wasn't a formal "announcement" about Rust's initial open-sourcing (if somebody knows otherwise please link). It was mentioned the next day on LtU: http://lambda-the-ultimate.org/node/4009

Can you add (2010) to the title please?

I don't think so. I don't see anything to click that would let me do that, but I'm happy to do so if someone tells me how.

Users can't edit titles; mods can. If this had hit the front page, they probably would have done it for you.

If you are the user that posted the story, you can see an edit link in the listing of stories. (For a limited time after posting.)
