std.rs is seeking a new owner

Hello, /r/rust!

Almost three years ago I launched std.rs, a small CloudFlare worker that redirects you to stable rust std docs. Priorities change, and I no longer have the time to maintain projects such as std.rs. As a result, it's essentially been sitting stagnant. For example, there are currently 15 open PRs, 2 of which were written by some lovely folks from the Rust community (13 are dependabot), including one to rewrite the worker in Rust. I never had time to get around to reviewing that PR, even though it feels completely appropriate.

I would love to give the domain name (and the project) to someone who is willing to steward them well. Given that the domain std.rs has some intrinsic value I would prefer to give it to someone who has some standing in the Rust community already, though I don't have any specific folks in mind.

I just paid for the next year of registration. .rs domains from ISTanCo (where I have the domain registered) are renewing at $33.39 USD per year (at least that's what I just paid, tax and whatnot may make things different for whoever picks this up).

Thank you for reading and keep being awesome, /r/rust!

P.S. ChatGPT
