title: "November 2023 Leadership Council Update" | ||
author: Leadership Council | ||
team: Leadership Council <https://www.rust-lang.org/governance/teams/leadership-council> | ||

||
Hello again from the Rust Leadership Council! | ||
We wanted to share an update on what the Council has been working on since [our last update][update]. | ||
|
||
[update]: https://blog.rust-lang.org/inside-rust/2023/07/25/leadership-council-update.html | ||
|
||
## Accomplishments so far | ||
|
||
We have elected new project directors! | ||
Through the great work of the [Project Director Election Process Committee][pd-committee], | ||
we have defined a [process][pd-process] for selecting Project Directors for the Rust Foundation Board of Directors. | ||
We carried out the process, and [recently announced][pd-announce] the new directors. | ||
We will be following up with a retrospective to identify what went well and what can be improved, | ||
and feed those improvements back into the process for next year. | ||
|
||
[pd-committee]: https://github.com/rust-lang/leadership-council/blob/main/committees/project-director-election-process.md | ||
[pd-process]: https://github.com/rust-lang/leadership-council/blob/main/policies/project-director-election-process.md | ||
[pd-announce]: https://blog.rust-lang.org/2023/10/19/announcing-the-new-rust-project-directors.html | ||
|
||
We have established a new home for Project governance documentation at <https://forge.rust-lang.org/governance/index.html>. | ||
As changes to the governance policies are accepted via the RFC process, | ||
we intend to update this documentation so that there is a single place for the current policy. | ||
Additionally, we plan to grow this documentation to include more Project-wide policies, | ||
and to possibly include information about the teams within the Project. | ||
|
||
Additionally, the [Rust Forge](https://forge.rust-lang.org/) has been updated to grant merge permissions to anyone on the teams hosting content there. | ||
Any team that wants to include their own content on the Forge is welcome to add themselves to the [permissions list](https://github.com/rust-lang/team/blob/master/repos/rust-lang/rust-forge.toml). | ||
|
||
The documentation at <https://github.com/rust-lang/leadership-council> has been updated with some more information about how the Council itself works internally. | ||
The Council issue backlog is now being tracked at <https://github.com/rust-lang/leadership-council/issues>, | ||
along with [documentation][issue-process] on how Council issue tracking is intended to work. | ||
Anyone is welcome to open an issue if you have a question or have a proposal for some new policy or process. | ||
|
||
[issue-process]: https://github.com/rust-lang/leadership-council/blob/main/procedures/issues.md | ||
|
||
Additionally, we are now tracking a [schedule] of upcoming and recurring events and deadlines for the Council. | ||
Although this is a somewhat primitive system, it can be helpful to keep an eye on tasks. | ||
|
||
[schedule]: https://github.com/rust-lang/leadership-council/blob/main/procedures/schedule.md | ||
|
||
We have added a process for having [observers join the Council meetings][meeting-observers]. | ||
If a Rust Project team member is interested in joining the meeting, just let us know on Zulip or contact a Council member. | ||
|
||
[meeting-observers]: https://github.com/rust-lang/leadership-council/blob/main/procedures/meeting-observers.md | ||
|
||
We have accepted [RFC 3501] to start the process to release the 2024 Edition next year, to set up a [group][edition-group] to make that happen, and to set a regular cadence moving forward. | ||
We are looking forward to getting this process underway. | ||
If you are interested in helping with the 2024 Edition, please join us on the [#edition] Zulip stream. | ||
|
||
[RFC 3501]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/3501 | ||
[#edition]: https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/268952-edition | ||
[edition-group]: https://github.com/rust-lang/team/blob/3f4b22485abf0179a79b5ca37154ac5e0ab940e6/teams/project-edition-2024.toml | ||
|
||
Thanks to the help of the infrastructure team, | ||
there is now an official Mastodon server currently hosting the [@rust@social.rust-lang.org][mastodon] account. | ||
This account will be posting the same as the [@rustlang] Twitter/X account. | ||
|
||

[@rustlang]: https://twitter.com/rustlang | ||
|
||
The beginning steps have started with defining the ["shape of the Rust Project"][shape] initiative. | ||
We hope to have more to share on this in the coming months as we start ramping up. | ||
For anyone that is interested in participating, please join us on Zulip in the [#council][zulip-shape] stream. | ||
