What's that?
I have scripts that automate publishing of new release of my crates. And I think many projects have.

- serial_dev 3y agoWrite some automated analysis that looks up popular packages on npm, pub.dev, rubygems, nuget. "Rustify" the package names. Add to it frequently used words, maybe popular names, etc. Then, write a script that creates an empty package, registers a name on crates.io every thirty seconds, and then you have about 20k package names after a week that nobody can use.
