Version 1.23.0 (2018-01-04)
==========================

Language
--------
- [Arbitrary `auto` traits are now permitted in trait objects.][45772]
- [rustc now uses subtyping on the left hand side of binary operations.][45435]
  Which should fix some confusing errors in some operations.

Compiler
--------
- [Enabled `TrapUnreachable` in LLVM which should mitigate the impact of
  undefined behaviour.][45920]
- [rustc now suggests renaming import if names clash.][45660]
- [Display errors/warnings correctly when there are zero-width or
  wide characters.][45711]
- [rustc now avoids unnecessary copies of arguments that are
  simple bindings][45380] This should improve memory usage on average by 5-10%.
- [Updated musl used to build musl rustc to 1.1.17][45393]

can we clarify that improve memory usage on average by 5-10%. is of the compilation of programs, not of the resulting binarys.

Upgraded Android SDK to 27, and NDK to r15c. This drops support for Android 9, the minimum supported version is Android 14.

I guess this drops Android NDK 9 and not Android 9.

Yes, it refers to API level 9/14, meaning 2.3/4.0 (gingerbread/ice-cream-sandwich). Android versioning is hard
