    @Rogue @snaggen Yeah, it’s a setting in Cargo.toml that you have to update manually if you want to upgrade. It is set to latest edition in new projects. And the nice thing:

    it’s configurable per-crate, not per-compilation. So you can depend on crates that use different editions than your crate. Which avoids ecosystem fragmentation.

      Thanks! That pre-empted my next question of how quickly crates typically update to newer editions. I guess it doesn’t matter

        There is also cargo fix --edition which can update your code in a very conservative way automatically. The result might not be as idiomatic but errs on the side of having semantics that do not change.
