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.
