The core team has tended to view our strategy not in terms of particular features or
aesthetic goals, but instead in terms of **making Rust successful while staying

development.
That's not to say we should expect to see this usage *immediately*; there's a
long pipeline for technology adoption, so the effects of our work can take a
while to appear. The framing here is about our long-term aims. We should be

success in the future.
### The obstacles to success
At this point, we have a fair amount of data about how Rust is reaching its
