### Nominated

- [7 `rust-lang/rust` `I-libs-api-nominated` items](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues?q=label:I-libs-api-nominated+is:open)
- rust.tf/64797 *Tracking issue for RFC 2523, \`#\[cfg(accessible(::path::to::thing))\]\`*
- rust.tf/89780 *Tracking Issue for poll.ready()?*
- rust.tf/93050 *Tracking Issue for Option::is\_some\_and and Result::is\_{ok,err}\_and*
- We could ask for a pr that changes it to by value, because then we'll see the changes in rustc too and see if that improves things.
- Some discussion on whether we want this at all.
- Alternative: some language feature like `last is Some(x) && x.method()`.
- Would also cover `.is_some()` etc.
- rust.tf/95290 *Document that \`OsString\` and \`OsStr\` are bytes; provide conversions to bytes*
- rust.tf/98445 *\[Experiment\] \[WIP\] Add clone\_from to clone derive*
- rust.tf/98461 *Document lack of panic safety guarantees of \`Clone::clone\_from\`*
- rust.tf/98655 *Don't derive \`PartialEq::ne\`.*
- deprecate `ne`?
- Most uses of PartialEq::ne are in implementations of PartialEq::ne, but there are some cases where it's used as a function passed as an argument.
- In Rust, != and == can only evaluate to a bool, not to any other type like in C++.
- A language feature to allow for `final` methods?
- And a warning/lint variant of that.
- This change for PartialOrd happened last year wihtout libs approval. rust.tf/81384
- Post a link to 81384 to the current thread as an interesting data point.
- [1 `rust-lang/rfcs` `I-libs-api-nominated` items](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/issues?q=label:I-libs-api-nominated+is:open)
- rust.tf/rfc3127 *New rustc and Cargo options to allow path sanitisation by default*
- Looks good from libs-api perspective.

### Waiting on team

- [1 `rust-lang/rust` `T-libs-api` `S-waiting-on-team` items](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues?q=label:T-libs-api+label:S-waiting-on-team+is:open)
- rust.tf/98174 *Rename \`\<\*{mut,const} T\>::as\_{const,mut}\` to \`cast\_\`*

### Needs decision

None

### Stalled Tracking Issues

- [30 `rust-lang/rust` `T-libs-api` `C-tracking-issue` items](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues?q=label:T-libs-api+label:C-tracking-issue+is:open+sort:updated-asc)
- rust.tf/55132 *Tracking issue for thread::Builder::spawn\_unchecked*
- rust.tf/41758 *Tracking issue for Vec::resize\_with and resize\_default*
- FCP finished. Should be merged?
- No, [FCP](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/41758#issuecomment-443076613) was for `resize_with`, which was merged in 1.33
- The open question is whether `resize_default` is wanted, or if `.resize_with(Default::default)` is fine.
- rust.tf/66893 *Tracking issue for atomic\_mut\_ptr*
- rust.tf/71503 *Tracking Issue for binary heap retain*
- rust.tf/72505 *Tracking issue for \`#!\[feature(const\_float\_classify)\]\`*
