Hi, hello. Welcome to the first video in the Rust Release Changelog Series

from the relatively new Rust Content Team. You may not have heard of us by now and that's a little on us. Our team was founded to help explore and publish more of what's happening within and from the prospective of the Rust Project itself.
Recently we've observed many questions regarding things that we've taken for granted that everyone knew about Rust. This lead us to realize that most everyone on our team has been around since the early days when it was easy to keep up with everything in the Project, but as we grow, it's completely unreasonable to expect anyone to be able to 'catch up' with more than a decade of knowledge.
Our hope is to use this series to both surface voices within the Project and to give the community more insight into how things work. We plan to release one video every 6 weeks coinciding with Rust's release cadence.
We have a handful of topics we’re already planning to cover in future episodes, but please let us know anything you’d like to hear about. If you’re interested in presenting a topic or have a team or person you’d like to hear directly from, let us know!
