Selfref is looking for maintainers

we currently maintain selfref but we'd like to move on from rust, so we're looking for a new maintainer. we believe in affirmative action so this is only for folks who are trans, and/or Black women.

we seek a maintainer who has a passion for deeply exploring the features the language offers. someone who knows or wants to know why selfref takes the approach it does vs similar alternatives (namely, taking advantage of rust's limited support of self-references via lifetimes). talk to us!

That second condition is pretty non inclusive. Not very community friendly.

i could do this, but honestly, i don't need more work.

and there's already so many self-referential data hack crates... i don't see a section listing its advantages over mainstream options, either.

rust is the programming language of trans women.

we knew we had written about it somewhere, apparently it was here: comparison with selfref · Issue #45 · Voultapher/self_cell · GitHub

Inclusive means including others.

updated requirements. hope that helps.

Better. But still very discriminatory. I'm amazed this forums CoC allows it.
