The Rust Foundation has been established to act as the steward for the increasingly popular programming language Rust. Its backers include AWS, Huawei, Google, Microsoft and Mozilla.
The core team behind the Rust programming language have announced the establishment of the Rust Foundation, an independent non-profit that will steward the increasingly popular language. The move follows lay-offs at Mozilla last August which affected those working on Rust. Commenting on the formation of the Rust Foundation, Mozilla said: The board of directors at the new organisation are set to have their first meeting tomorrow.
