Monthly report for the month of March: rust-gcc.github.io/2025/04/1… Which mentions some of the work done for supporting specialization in `core` :) We've upstreamed 600 commits to GCC this month and will continue to do so until 15.1 releases!

We have written a short technical dive into how we currently reuse Rust components within gccrs, a compiler written in C , and how we will continue doing so in the future, eventually compiling them using our own compiler. rust-gcc.github.io/2024/09/2…

After 7 years, there will finally be another "Rust All Hands" event where all members of the Rust project come together in person to collaborate on the future of Rust. 🎉 The All Hands will be part of @Rust_NL's "Rust Week 2025" in Utrecht, Netherlands. blog.rust-lang.org/inside-ru…

The monthly report for August 2024 is out: rust-gcc.github.io/2024/09/0… GSoC is now over, with amazing work from our three students @thisisjjasmine, @bald_chimaev and @_mmahad. They all want to continue working on the project in their free time, which makes us super happy ❤️

We have also uploaded our engineering document for the upcoming years of work: rust-gcc.github.io/2024/09/0… This outlines future milestones we will be tackling. The goal is to help us picture when gccrs will start being useful for projects such as Rust-for-Linux or embedded software.

GSoC is over, and thanks to our wonderful students we now have a lot more features and tooling which will help the compiler in the long run. One of those user-facing features is the proper handling of borrow-checker errors, which now have helpful error messages and proper locus!

Of course, we are still nowhere close to how good and helpful rustc's errors are. If anyone is interested in adding helpful hints to our borrow checker errors, please get in touch! This is not critical at the moment, but this is something we'd love to work on

As a reminder, gccrs uses the polonius-engine Rust crate to do its borrow-checking. This is an old version of the polonius borrow-checker, and not the one being currently developed, but we follow the work closely and aim to help integrate it and crate-ify it as soon as possible!
