One thing about Cargo's lack of 'vendoring' on the checkmark list; there is https://github.com/alexcrichton/cargo-vendor , and soon there will be https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/2857

On the CF buildpacks team in NYC, lack of vendoring prevented us from completing a buildpack that would work in disconnected Cloud Foundry installations.

We were sad.

Hm, even without the above stuff, `cargo fetch` should enable you to do offline builds just fine.

Can you point to a man page? We weren't able to find a reference doc on the cargo site.

[steveklabnik]

"cargo --list" will show all commands, which shows fetch. "cargo fetch --help" then shows the help for fetch.

We certainly have some work to do on Cargo's docs. Please don't hesitate to open a thread on users.rust-lang.org if you run into some kind of issue. In addition, I actually live in Brooklyn; if Pivotal ever needs a hand with Rust stuff, just let me know, I'd be happy to swing by your office and talk about whatever.

Right, we've hosted you for a few tech talks (I'm that Australian guy who MCs).

Email me on ... uh ... wednesday, maybe? We could get you to visit to check the buildpack work we did last week.
