Joe Birr-Pixton has written a blog post
reflecting on a decade of the Rustls TLS-library project and looking ahead to
the upcoming�0.24 release and an eventual�1.0 release.

Rustls began with a
first commit on May�2,�2016. Progress was quick: a month later, on June�5,
it could interoperate with most sites on the web. The first release,�0.1.0,
followed on August�27,�2016 - less than four months after the first commit.

[...] From the�0.1.0 release, the project moved through a long series of
releases over the following eight years, building out functionality, hardening
and refining the API. That sequence of release lines culminated in�0.23,
released on February�29,�2024.

The�0.23 release line has been a stable one: in the time since, it has
seen�43 non-breaking releases. That stability didn't come with
stagnation. The�0.23 line delivered a wide range of important features,
including a FIPS-certified cryptography option, certificate compression,
Encrypted ClientHello, post-quantum cryptography, and performance
improvements.
