We're making good progress on upki, our collaboration with the rustls project to bring browser-grade web PKI capabilities to low level system utilities. The first beta release makes available revocation checks based on CRLite filters from Mozilla. #Canonical is hosting the backend service, and is now making a PPA available so you can try out upki in #Ubuntu, as well as a patched version of OpenSSL that makes use of the new capability. Give it a go and let us know! https://lnkd.in/d7Wz67qa As ever, thanks to Dirkjan Ochtman and Joe Birr-Pixton for their hard work on this!

On July 9 at 11am ET, Rust Foundation Project Director Jack Huey, Ph.D. & Director of Outreach Lori Lorusso join Anton Weiss for an unfiltered look at integrating the Rust programming language into real-world codebases pragmatically, without starting over. 📌 You'll Walk Away With: - A realistic picture of incremental adoption for teams that can't afford a rewrite - Guidance on fitting Rust into existing architectures without disrupting what's working - An inside view of how the Rust Project is reducing barriers for real-world engineering teams - A clearer answer to whether Rust is the right move for your codebase, from someone building the path forward Link to register: https://lnkd.in/deFkq43W #rustlang #rustfoundation #opensource

RustConf Speaker Spotlight: Divya Chakarwarti, Software Engineer, Core Dev Rust Team at Google We’re delighted to feature Divya at RustConf 2026! On September 9, Divya will present "From C++ APIs to Idiomatic Rust: Wrapper Design Patterns", repeatable design patterns for wrapping real C++ libraries in safe, idiomatic Rust, modeling ownership and lifetimes, mapping errors into Result, and minimizing unsafe surface area, closing with a review checklist teams can apply immediately. 🗓️ September 9 Find this talk on the schedule: https://lnkd.in/eetwqrYE ✅ Register to join us: https://bit.ly/4dSDNQM #rustconf26 #rustconf #rustlang

RustConf Speaker Spotlight: David Lawrence, Roboticist at RAI Institute. We’re delighted to feature David at RustConf 2026! On September 10, David will present "Real-Time Rust in Robotics": a tour of where Rust is making headway in a robot's architecture, drawn from bringing bare-metal Rust to the low-level sensors and actuators of a research robotics platform, and how it improved real-time performance and reliability. 🗓️ September 10 · 13:45-14:25 Find this talk on the schedule: https://lnkd.in/gRTysnZ2 ✅ Register to join us: https://bit.ly/4dSDNQM #rustconf26 #rustconf #rustlang

The Rust Foundation is pleased to welcome Wild to the Rust Innovation Lab (RIL): the Rust Foundation's home for projects that power critical infrastructure. Through the RIL, we provide projects like Wild support, stability, and space to grow. Wild is a linker with the goal of being very fast for iterative development. Wild is Linux-only today, but cross-platform support is a clear priority: ports to Windows and macOS are on the roadmap. The project is licensed under MIT and Apache 2.0 (the same dual license used by the Rust project itself), so the code remains freely available to everyone. Wild is maintained by David Lattimore along with a growing group of contributors. Development is supported financially by Rust Foundation Platinum Member Amazon Web Services (AWS).
