Can't anybody from the rust community take over this site? Creating a completely new site might be a fallback, but arewewebyet is referenced / linked very often

  We have tried but the author has not gotten back the few times we've tried. Tried again today, check the issues there.

    Can you say something about those points? I mean there aren' many... HTTP Server? DB Drivers? Frameworks? E-Mail? I mean on Node.js I use Hapi (+a few plugins) and Sequelize, which does pretty much everything for me. I would guess, that everything besides the DB drivers is available in Rust too...

      It's not just about how many, but how mature they are. There's been a lot of work in the last year. For servers, there's rotor and hyper. Database drivers, we have very good Postgres and MongoDB options, with some SQlite bindings too. Possibly others, I don't pay too much attention to this space. We have multiple ORMs, one of which is being written by the maintainer of Rails' ActiveRecord. As for frameworks, we don't have a ton of full-stack ones, but a number of the smaller ones, iron, nickel, etc. I haven't explored email yet, but I know that there's some work there.

      HTTP Servers - all is ok Frameworks - all is fine HTTP client - Hyper works fine. Email - homemade email servers is a good way to go into blacklists, so mandrill/postman is the much better choice. "Several hundred thousand things about the place" - not actual anymore, there are rare things which are not covered by crates. Just open crates.io and type name of thing you need.
