A RustFest Carol
summary
A fable about stability that names the concrete wins and mechanisms: the language stabilizes derive (procedural macros) so libraries like serde can generate fast, zero‑reflection serializers, the compiler lands drop check rules and a controversial catch panic later stabilized around 1.9, and the project proposes an epochs RFC 205 to epochalize feature sets so crates can opt into 2015 versus newer epochs while preserving linkability and gradual deprecation warnings.
