Servo to Advance in 2023 (via) This is excellent news: Serve, the browser-in-Rust project started by Mozilla in 2012 that produced the Rust programming language, is getting re-activated with four new full-time developers provided by Igalia.

Igalia are a fascinating organization - I hadn't realized quite how influential they've been until I read their Wikipedia page just now

They've been around since 2001, and "in 2019 they were the #2 committers to both the WebKit and Chromium codebases and in the top 10 contributors to Gecko/Servo" - including implementing and maintaining CSS Grid Layout!
