Description
Hello, cross users and contributors!
This project was originally written to help with building Rust projects for embedded targets that were not supported by upstream Rust. Since then, many common embedded targets have become officially supported, so for many embedded users there is no longer any need for cross. However, due to this history it's still maintained by the rust-embedded working group and the tools team specifically.
Today, cross is still used widely for many different targets and projects, but the rust-embedded working group doesn't have much bandwidth to spend on its maintenance, so many issues and PRs are going unloved. We'd love to have some new maintainers to help ensure cross gets the attention it deserves, especially from people who are currently finding it useful.
Specifically we'd also love to get another release out, which requires investigating and/or fixing broken Windows support and perhaps getting some more open PRs or issues merged. I know a lot of users would love to get a new release as a bunch of important fixes have been merged since the last one.
If you're interested, please comment here, or message me privately on Matrix (@adamgreig:matrix.org), especially if you've already made some contributions to this repo. If you have any other ideas for ongoing maintenance and development that would be great too!
