The link to the Procedural macros book chapter is broken.

Sometimes links aren’t live until it’s actually released, but I don’t see that chapter in the beta docs either. It is there on nightly though.

“Using anonymous parameters in traits is now deprecated with a warning and will be a hard error in the 2018 edition” links to https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/53272, I think it should link to https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/41686 or the RFC instead.

I agree. I think linking to both the tracking issue and RFC might be good…

@Mark_Simulacrum does the release team read the comments here before doing the release? See https://users.rust-lang.org/t/rust-1-3-0-chap-19-06-missing/21640

There was a PR open fixing it, it just hasn’t landed yet because I made a mistake with the patch and didn’t realize.

Mark_Simulacrum · 2018-10-26T01:29:50.384Z

To be completely clear, I checked here, but unfortunately this release pushed artifact builds too close to the actual release for us to change anything unless a major issue was found. Since the release note URLs are not too important (master is the true authoritative source for the latest corrections) I made the decision to not hold the release for that fix.

It would be good if there were examples of the attribute-like and function-like procedural macros in the docs.
