This year will be a focused one for the Rust community, with two overall technical goals, and two social ones. Here we’ll give a brief overview of each goal and some overarching themes, and in the Reference section below we’ll provide full detail.

- **Ship** ***Rust 2018***. We will ship a major marketing (epoch) release in the final third of the year, with the unifying message of *productivity*. We will polish and stabilize a number of already-implemented language features like `impl Trait`, macros 2.0, SIMD, generators, non-lexical lifetimes and the modules revamp—and very few new ones. We will also drive critical tools (like the RLS and rustfmt), libraries, and documentation to 1.0 status. We will overhaul the http://rust-lang.org/ site to help market the release and to support programmer productivity.

- A steady focus on compiler performance leading up to the epoch release. We will pursue two strategies in parallel: continuing to push incremental recompilation into earlier stages of the compiler, but also looking for general improvements that help even with from-scratch compilation. For the latter, avenues include compiler parallelization and MIR-only rlibs, amongst others. We will formulate a comprehensive set of compilation scenarios and corresponding benchmarks and set targets for the epoch release (see the [tracking issue](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/48547) for some details). Finally, we will spin up a dedicated Compiler Performance Working Group to focus on this area.

- Continuing to improve compile times. By the end of the year, recompilations on large crates should be around 30s.

- Another push on improving error messages.

- Epoch tooling: adding an epoch flag and building `rustfix`, likely by leveraging lints.
