Yikes! I had no idea. It takes my company years sometimes to approve a new point release of software. Rhel subscription was my backdoor to get rust at work. I knew I'd never get a cargo access or a mirror approved, but i thought some day I'd push for an lts release. I don't see my company ever doing sw approval and transfer to our development network faster than once a year.

Well with RHEL 8 you can get a pretty up to date rustc, as they update the version in their stable repos every three months (so every two releases): https://developers.redhat.com/blog/2019/11/07/support-lifecy...
