Andrew - this series has significant review and all feedback has been addressed, I believe the procedure for rust things is that, where possible, the maintainers for the subsystem generally take series (though of course, it is entirely maintained and managed by rust people). Would it be possible to take this, or do you need anything else here? Thanks!

This is one for Andrew to decide, but to me it seems most logical to add a new entry like 'MEMORY MANAGEMENT [RUST]'. And I think it'd be ideal to do so with this imminently landing, not sure if we ought to merge as part of the series or separately - again, one for Andrew to opine on :) Thanks for all the hard work Alice and co, this is great! > > Signed-off-by: Alice Ryhl <aliceryhl@xxxxxxxxxx> > --- > Changes in v14: > -
