Today it’s my happy duty to announce that Ashley Mannix (@KodrAus) and Boats (@withoutboats) are joining the Libs Team as full members. Ashley oversaw the Libz Blitz in its final months, and has been playing an increasing role in maintenance of std and other libraries in the ecosystem. Boats has been doing foundational library work with crates like failure and has also been involved in the async I/O and http ecosystems.
I suspect that many of these commenters don’t realize that the post they’re replying to is months or years old. It would be useful if the forum raised a warning alert when someone is typing in a reply window and the last prior post was more than N months prior (e.g., where N = 3). Just something like “It appears that this thread is dead. Do you really want to reactivate it?”
