They have the Editions mechanism for unavoidable breaking changes, but their target market is people who care a whole lot about stability and maintainability, so it wouldn't make any sense for them to jettison that design goal.
- SAI_Peregrinus 4y agoUnfortunately the Editions system (as nice as it is) only works for the language, not for the standard or core libraries. It's possible to create such a system (similar to glibc symbol versioning), but AFIAK Rust doesn't currently have one.
