This page collects most of the available information about Rust.

The reference docs are the most reliable source of information, because those are likely to be correct, if incomplete. This wiki also has a number of useful articles of varying ages and accuracy.

For the most up to date information, the best source is often to ask in #rust on irc.mozilla.org, as that is where most discussion about Rust takes place. A lot of decisions are made on rust-dev, and new developments are often blogged in various places, which usually appear on r/rust. Some people find the minutes from the weekly planning meetings useful for keeping informed.
