From ea4a6567d03e0062356501ec09da9e17d56618d3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Alan D. Salewski" Date: Sun, 14 Aug 2022 19:53:17 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] fixes #277: mention rust 1.0 release month and year In the "What are Editions?" section, note that Rust 1.0 was released in May 2015, since it answers a likely question in the mind of the reader considering the preceding commentary referencing that time frame. Writing in Q3 2022, noting the date also helps establish the Rust project's credible commitment to the rule of supporting stable features in perpetuity. It is not something that was just thought up recently -- the project has been adhering to it for more than seven years. Signed-off-by: Alan D.
