### Nominated

- [1 `rust-lang/rust` `T-libs-api` `I-nominated` items](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues?q=is:open+label:T-libs-api+label:I-nominated)
- [[87264](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/87264)] *proc\_macro: Add an expand\_literal method to TokenStream*
- `expand_expr` still the way to go. Spans not being perfect is okay.
- [ ] Mara to reply.

### Waiting on team

- [1 `rust-lang/rust` `T-libs-api` `S-waiting-on-team` items](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues?q=is:open+label:T-libs-api+label:S-waiting-on-team)
- [[66358](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/66358)] *Tracking issue for \`UnsafeCell::raw\_get\`*
- [x] David: `raw_` as prefix for methods taking a 'self' pointer seems reasonable. ~~Going to comment.~~ Mara commented.

### Needs decision

- [7 `rust-lang/rust` `T-libs-api` `I-needs-decision` items](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues?q=is:open+label:T-libs-api+label:I-needs-decision)
- [[25053](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/25053)] *UnsafeCell should implement the Copy trait*
- Waiting on a concrete proposal, not on team.
- [x] Commented and removed label.
- [[26951](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/26951)] `P-low` *Abort on some large allocation requests, Panic on other*
- [ ] Jane to research and follow up. Check with allocator wg.
- [[37868](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/37868)] *std::process::Command's current\_dir behaves differently on Unix and Windows, with respect to relative exe paths*
- Needs a proposal for a solution.
- [x] Pinged Chris Denton for input.
- [[56889](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/56889)] *Write::write\_all erroring when encountering Ok(0) interacts poorly with the contract of Write::write*
- Does not seem like an issue? looping forever is not an option, not writing all is also not an option. so current behaviour seems like the only possibility?
- [x] Mara to verify and close.
- [[59878](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/59878)] *Box\<\[T\]\> should have an IntoIter implementation.*
- [ ] Did we mix up `Box<[T]>` and `Box<[T; N]>`? Mara to check edition meeting notes. Bring up in next edition meeting.
- [[62726](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/62726)] *Tracking issue for io\_slice\_advance*
- Ready for FCP? Tracking issue needs updating to match the current API. Could use examples (from std?)
- [ ] Mara to update and kick off FCP.
- [[87228](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/87228)] *Decide whether \`asm!\` and/or \`global\_asm!\` should be exported from the prelude.*
- [x] Posted a comment directly on the issue.
