| 7 | +Just a quick update: You may have noticed that, in the last month or |
| 8 | +so, a number of [Rust core team] members have changed their jobs |
| 9 | +and/or their roles in the project. Two people have decided to step |
| 10 | +back from the core team: |
| 11 | + |
| 12 | +[Rust core team]: https://www.rust-lang.org/governance/teams/core |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +- Nick Cameron [left Mozilla to work at PingCap][nrc]. Although he |
| 15 | + won’t have time to stay active on the core team, he plans to |
| 16 | + continue co-leading the Cargo team in his new position. |
| 17 | +- Aaron Turon [decided to step back from the core team][aturon] so |
| 18 | + that he could focus on engineering work and the language design |
| 19 | + team. (He remains on the Rust team at Mozilla.) |

| 24 | +With Rust 2018 having shipped, this is a natural time of |
| 25 | +transition. While we’ll miss Nick and Aaron’s contributions to the |
| 26 | +core team, we are very excited for them to be focusing on something |
| 27 | +new, and we’re very happy that they are still going to stay involved |
| 28 | +with Rust. We’re also looking into growing the core team to help with |
| 29 | +the work ahead. |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | +Finally, two other members have changed their jobs, but plan to stay |
| 32 | +involved in the core team: |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | +- Ashley Williams [joined Cloudflare and plans to work on Rust and WASM integration there][ag_dubs]. |
| 35 | + She will be remaining on the core team. |
| 36 | +- Steve Klabnik [left Mozilla, but will remain on the core team.][steveklabnik] |
