How Rust triages regressions and prevents them from reaching to stable

slide: https://speakerdeck.com/johntitor/rust-dot-tokyo-2021-how-rust-triages-regressions-and-prevents-them-from-reaching-to-stable

This talk’s goal is for you to understand what Rust contributors are doing to prevent regressions from reaching stable Rust.

It is generally known that there is more regression in nightly Rust and less in stable Rust, but how many people know how Rust contributors triage and fix it?

This talk describes:

・How do the release channels help to prevent regressions?
・What are the different types of regressions?
・How to find regressions before releasing stable?
・What’s the prioritization working group? What are they doing?
・Some examples of what and how we did
・How to contribute it?

… and some more!
