> But I don't know if technical details such as this are high enough on the priority list.

There are actual features which still have no documentation. It's hard being a single person trying to keep up with changes from tons of other people, many full time and some community. I may be the person who is most looking forward to Rust being stable...

And I should say, for the record, that you deserve a ton of credit for being a nearly superhuman job. The doc may be lacking, but it would be far worse off without you.

Still, I wish the team/community could find a way to shore up the coverage of this kind of information. I think we've given beginners enough for now, that the focus should shift to "details you need to know about what the compiler does."

Thank you, I appreciate it. These kinds of comments are the ones I try to re-read when I'm feeling down about stuff.

Yes, I agree, I'd love more help :) I think you'll see a shift after 1.0.0-beta happens, since then, the focus will be on polish, rather than shipping every breaking change.
