What happened
The Rust Foundation announced the Rust Foundation Maintainers Fund (RFMF) to support Rust maintainers financially. A few months after the fund's initial announcement, the Rust Project and the Rust Foundation cooperated to define how the fund will be used. This resulted in the acceptance of RFC #3931, which established a Funding team and a Maintainer in Residence program. The Rust Blog reported on the fund's launch and encouraged donations.
