What follows is a list of deliverables and their current status. Each deliverable goes through several stages -- ranging from "experimentation" (people in the greater Rust community authoring crates) to "stabilization" (something official is decided). For each deliverable, we indicate how far along in the process we feel that it has reached, and indicate whether it is something we are actively working on, something which is paused for the time being, or something that is blocked on something else. For things that we are actively working on, we give dates as to our estimated time of completion.
These emojis are used to represent the state of a deliverable:

Each deliverable name is also a link to a description of what it entails. In many cases, the emojis link to more information, completed documents, and so forth. We also include estimated completion dates.
Tooling is presently in the experimentation stage, meaning that we are encouraging people to build things in the ecosystem that we can link here! If you have ideas that require support from the compiler or language, please raise them.
Testing is presently in the experimentation stage, meaning that we are encouraging people to build things in the ecosystem that we can link here! If you have ideas that require support from the compiler or language, please raise them.
The follow deliverables are slightly past the current horizon, but we are starting to noodle on what they might mean, and trying to leave space to pursue these directions in the future:
