summary
Overview of who runs Rust and how decisions actually happen: the Rust Foundation provides funding and events while the volunteer Rust project—organized into seven top-level teams that each nominate one member to the Leadership Council—develops the language, compiler, Cargo, std, CI and infra. Day-to-day discussion lives on Zulip and GitHub. Big changes use the RFC process and consensus rules (no objections plus at most two missing yes votes, then a 10‑day final comment period). Automation like Bors, Crater, TriBot enforces CI, ecosystem-wide testing, and reviewer/notification workflows.
