And there are even projects that are like C code bases that are starting to say, hey, it's went into Linux.
Maybe we should start using it too.
Maybe we should have a memory safe language too.
I know that Git is talking about it.
I know that CPython is talking about it.
There are probably others.
QEMU maybe?
I mean, it's really an open source project.
I mean, you may know that it originally originates from Mozilla, but it's not a Mozilla project anymore at all.
So today, there's the Rust project, which has a bunch of different themes.
There's the language team, which deals with the language.
There's the library API team, which decides on the API of the standard library.
And these teams kind of govern it.
So it's the people who are on these teams that run the language.
Honestly, if the team doesn't sign off on it, it doesn't happen.
I mean, if something is really contentious or really big, it will probably end up being discussed at a conference.
For example, so there's a conference called Rust Week where they have an event called the Rust All Hands where they're basically taking all of the Rust developers and putting them in one place.
So if there was a problem like that, they would probably discuss it there.
Yeah, really, when it comes to the design of the language, the teams are really, that's really it.
Teams have been pretty good as far as I've seen at delegating.
