* '''Mentoring and Networking''' -- Mozilla San Francisco hosted the [https://mentorlounge.ca/ CGX Mentors Lounge] event as part of the annual Games Developers Conference (GDC). We had 96 attendees onsite, 65% identified themselves as women (at a game developers’ event!), and 35 industry leaders & engineers served as mentors in one-on-one sessions exploring all areas of game development across leadership, tech, creative, and industry initiatives. Videos of the event along with comments from participants are available on the [https://mentorlounge.ca/ Mentors Lounge] web site.
* '''WebAssembly Outside the Browser''' -- This past week Mozilla, along with Fastly, Node, and NPM [https://hacks.mozilla.org/2019/03/standardizing-wasi-a-webassembly-system-interface/ announced WASI], the WebAssembly System Interface, as a standards effort to enable use of WebAssembly outside the browser. WASI, along with a WebAssembly runtime like Mozilla’s [https://github.com/CraneStation/wasmtime/ Wasmtime], enables developers to get all the benefits of WebAssembly -- speed, efficiency, portability, and security -- for broad deployment across operating system environments. You can read more about it in Lin Clark’s [https://hacks.mozilla.org/2019/03/standardizing-wasi-a-webassembly-system-interface/ Hacks blog post] including some video of WASI and Wasmtime in action.
* '''Rust Governance''' -- The Rust project announced a [https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/governance-working-group-announcement/9637 Governance Working Group]. With now close to 5000 lifetime contributors and over 100 active project members, Rust has grown to become one of the larger FOSS projects. The Governance Working Group is designed to make the workings of the Rust project more predictable and transparent by examining, documenting, and proposing improvements to some of the policies and procedures used to run it. If you’re interested there will be opportunities to get involved in some of the topical subteams, so stay tuned.
