# Rust Foundation 2020 Q&A



⭐️ [**Read the summary of questions and answers so far in our FAQ!**][faq] ⭐️



After this summer's ["Laying the foundation for Rust's future"][aug-blog] blog

post the [Rust Foundation Project Group] began the work to setup a new home for

the Rust Project. We're getting near the end of the work, and we'd love to

answer all the questions you have on the Rust Foundation!



We welcome everyone to post their questions as [new issues][new], and the team

will do their best to answer them! You can also check [the open issues][issues]

to see what other people asked and the answers to their questions. If you can't

open GitHub issues or want to send questions privately you can send them via

email to .



Please note that if an issue is labelled [`answered`] the team will not return

to it, so if you have a follow up question, please post it as a new issue.



## FAQ



Periodically, we'll be summarizing the set of questions and answers on the 

issue tracker and collecting them in an [FAQ][faq]. 



## Maintainer Q&A



The members of the [Rust Core Team] will answer questions from the members of the

Rust Team starting from December 2nd.



## Community Q&A Sessions



Members of the Rust community will be able to ask questions of the [Rust Core Team] by filing issues on this repository during the following time periods:

## Live Broadcasts



In addition to this repository, we’ve scheduled two “live broadcasts”.

These sessions will feature members of the core team discussing and responding

to some of the questions that have been asked thus far. Naturally, even if you

can’t catch the live broadcast, the video will be available for streaming

afterwards. 



|                                                   |                            | PST US | EST US | UTC Europe/Africa  | India                   | China            |

### Things to keep in mind



Please keep in mind that the Foundation is still in its final stages of being

set up. This means that we are not able to talk about sponsors or specific

details of legal documents at this time. 



Additionally: none of the members of the [Rust Core Team] are lawyers, but we

have been working closely with lawyers. Many questions may end up touching on

legal issues; the [Rust Core Team] will do its best to communicate its

understanding, but we'd like to keep disputes of the law out of this forum to

the extent that we can!
