# Libs-API Meeting 2022-09-13

###### tags: `Libs Meetings` `Minutes`

**Meeting Link**: https://meet.jit.si/rust-libs-meeting-crxoz2at8hiccp7b3ixf89qgxfymlbwr
**Attendees**: David, Jane, Mara, thomcc, Chris Denton, Urgau, vincenzopalazzo

## Agenda

- ACP process updates
- Some complains. ACP process can feel like a dead-end.
- We need a bot.
- Jane volunteers to do this. Thanks <3
- As suggested by Chris: Once a week an async meeting on Zulip to go over the list of open ACPs
- Use emoji reactions or zulip polls to quickly get an impression on whether a proposal is viable.
- Urgau: Why not a zulip topic per ACP, like the compiler team does for MCPs?
- Mara, Jane: Prefer doing it in batches, once a week.
- Deprecate lazy_static
- We prefer once cell now, so time to deprecate?
- Don't mean `#[deprecated]`
- Just a note in the readme that it's not going to have new features/releases.
- Direct people to the std::lazy tracking issue to provide their feedback on the successor API
- Triage
- Anything else?

## Triage

### FCPs

17 rust-lang/rust T-libs-api FCPs

- merge rust.tf/89238 *deprecate f{32,64}::DIGITS* - (1 checkboxes left)
- merge rust.tf/90291 *Loosen the bound on the Debug implementation of Weak.* - (1 checkboxes left)
- Stuck. Maybe just close? Waiting on use case.
- merge rust.tf/88581 *Tracking Issue for \`int\_roundings\`* - (1 checkboxes left)
- merge rust.tf/80437 *Tracking Issue for \`box\_into\_inner\`* - (1 checkboxes left)
- FCP almost passed, but then the use case wasn't entirely clear because `*x` already covers all cases, it seems. Now unclear if everyone is still on board with it, and at least two are not. FCP cancel + FCP close to check.
- merge rust.tf/87800 *Tracking Issue for \`Option::unzip()\`* - (3 checkboxes left)
- In FCP now.
- merge rust.tf/91946 *Tracking Issue for \`io::Error::other\`* - (3 checkboxes left)
- Josh started it, but changed his mind right after. Cancel FCP?
- merge rust.tf/97373 *impl DispatchFromDyn for Cell and UnsafeCell* - (3 checkboxes left)
- need to run this by lang as well
- nominated for lang.
- merge rust.tf/70887 *Tracking Issue for Integer::{ilog,ilog2,ilog10}* - (3 checkboxes left)
- The native implementation without error checking would result in MAX, but that's not the correct result modulo 2^N, unlike the other ops. So just always panic seems better here, to force people to think about this edge case.
- Waiting for someone to implement that.
- merge rust.tf/71835 *Tracking Issue for constifying some \`{BTreeMap,Set}\` functions* - (3 checkboxes left)
- In FCP now.
- merge rust.tf/93050 *Tracking Issue for Option::is\_some\_and and Result::is\_{ok,err}\_and* - (3 checkboxes left)
- Open concern about by-ref self, and `is_some_or`.
- `is_some_or` PR is still open.
- merge rust.tf/100390 *Implement \`From\<bool\>\` for f32, f64* - (4 checkboxes left)
- merge rust.tf/98461 *Document lack of panic safety guarantees of \`Clone::clone\_from\`* - (1 checkboxes left)
- merge rust.tf/71503 *Tracking Issue for binary heap retain* - (3 checkboxes left)
- merge rust.tf/52331 *Correcting Path::components on Redox* - (5 checkboxes left)
- merge rust.tf/86442 *Tracking Issue for io\_error\_more* - (3 checkboxes left)
- merge rust.tf/101717 *Add documentation about the memory layout of \`UnsafeCell\<T\>\`* - (5 checkboxes left)
- merge rust.tf/82901 *Tracking Issue for \`Option::get\_or\_insert\_default\`* - (2 checkboxes left)
