### Santiago

- dynosaur
- Error handling #89 [https://github.com/spastorino/dynosaur/pull/89](https://github.com/spastorino/dynosaur/pull/89 "‌")
- Nice error messages when you write a const inside a trait, instead of leaving the compiler error on the generated code we just highlight the macro and say that a constant makes the trait not dyn compatible
- We error on some cases that we want to be sure we have the right behavior so we avoid stabilizing things that we may regret.
- Properly handle receiver if Self, Box<Self>, &Self, &mut Self or other #92 [https://github.com/spastorino/dynosaur/pull/92](https://github.com/spastorino/dynosaur/pull/92 "‌")
- This is a PR to properly handle the self receiver and error in cases that we don't want to support or at least we don't want to support yet.
- Add dynosaur bound for trait's definition generics #93 [https://github.com/spastorino/dynosaur/pull/93](https://github.com/spastorino/dynosaur/pull/93 "‌")
- Add some previously missing bounds
- Blanket proc macro #96 [https://github.com/spastorino/dynosaur/pull/96](https://github.com/spastorino/dynosaur/pull/96 "‌")
- Resolve blanket impl interaction with trait-variant #95
- Expand using a more accurate self type #97 [https://github.com/spastorino/dynosaur/pull/97](https://github.com/spastorino/dynosaur/pull/97 "‌")
- This makes the self type explicit, is good in case there are errors but also this PR was required for other changes related to AFIT and APIT support on dynosaur types itself
- Error properly on const #98 [https://github.com/spastorino/dynosaur/pull/98](https://github.com/spastorino/dynosaur/pull/98 "‌")
- Rename Decorated_Ufcs to MaybeBoxed_Ufcs #99 [https://github.com/spastorino/dynosaur/pull/99](https://github.com/spastorino/dynosaur/pull/99 "‌")
- Add supertrait bounds in where clauses for blanket impls #101 [https://github.com/spastorino/dynosaur/pull/101](https://github.com/spastorino/dynosaur/pull/101 "‌")
- Finishing touches for 0.3 #105 [https://github.com/spastorino/dynosaur/pull/105](https://github.com/spastorino/dynosaur/pull/105 "‌")
- ergonomic ref-counting
- I've resumed my work again. The state was that I have the liveness analysis implemented and now I'm working on getting the UseCall terminators into moves for the specific cases where we find a last use.

- I have been looking into it because it was mentioned in a couple of contexts at RustWeek.
- [#141421](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/141421): typedef handling improvements, massive improvements to typedef-heavy benchmarks: `typenum` -76%, `nalgebra` -58%, `stm32f4` -6%.
- [#141573](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/141573): cleanups relating to allocations, incl. a few sub-1% improvements
- A bunch of other cleanup PRs.

### Guillaume

* Working on writing a chart for the rustdoc team
* Finishing going through reviews for the RFC 3631 implementation
* Helping out on the creation of the new mdbook team
* Working on mdbook integration into rustdoc
* Greatly strengthening test checks in browser-ui-test

### Jane Losare-Lusby

* Finishing metrics initiative project goal
* integrated metrics gathering initially written for rustc with rustdoc
* currently gathering metrics on docs.rs ci via rustdoc integration
* tested initial sample of data from docs.rs on local setup
* currently debugging utf-8 issue with larger sample dataset
* larger sample of a little over 2 weeks of data takes up 15Mb
* next steps will be setting up initial sample of data on infra instances then just waiting until we've gathered enough data, I'm leaning towards 1 month.

### Vadim Petrochenkov

- Returned to Rust work this week, hopefully at least for a month.
- Very little Rust work since end of April, besides reviews.
- Debugged regressions on mingw targets caused by a major toolchain update to GCC 15.
- Some implementation help to unblock moving macros from `macro_use` prelude to stdlib prelude (#141934).
- Discussed details of language/compiler changes related to the open namespace proposal.

### Santiago

- Stepped down from some teams. Vision doc, project director for foundation, rustc dev guide but would stick in project goals management team until the hired person takes over things if that's the plan. This is to allow extra time for c2rust.
- Compiler / T-types
- dyn dispatch via a proc macro
- Add new arced rced #72 https://github.com/spastorino/dynosaur/pull/72
- Add ability to bless tests #76 https://github.com/spastorino/dynosaur/pull/76
- Improve README #71 https://github.com/spastorino/dynosaur/pull/71
- Generate Box impls for MyTrait #77 https://github.com/spastorino/dynosaur/pull/77
- ergonomic ref-counting
- we've designed a first solution for the last-use optimization
- Fixed a small ICE on rpitit assoc_items https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/14130
- c2rust
- Fixed bindgen issue that made c2rust with LLVM 19.1 not compile
- got together with Jane to talk about c2rust, took a brief look to the hackmd and started to investigate on redundant_type_annotations lint. Found out that it's very incomplete, in particular doesn't operate well in precense of generics and is neither machine applicable.
- We need to work in these 2 things and also figure out what's the right infraestructure we are going to use in order to hook into these clippy lints from c2rust.
