Follow up: the Rust Platform

I have a number of packages in another language's shared package ecosystem. Most, I have added because I think there's a chance they could be helpful to others and there were no appropriate alternatives at the time, but I wouldn't want most of my packages in a "platform" if I could avoid it.

Good perspective. There are some considerable downsides to having your work pulled into the official distribution for sure, including stagnation, loss of control, increased maintainership responsibilities.
