Rust team is annoucing 1.63.0 stable today 1.

There are serveral features I quite interested in:

  1. Scoped threads 2
  2. Safety I/O 3
  3. global const initialization for Mutex, RwLock, Condvar

These features help a lot to simplify codes. Also my next forwarding features should be:

  1. keyword generics 45
  2. GATs 6
  3. async traits 7
