+What will Rust development look like in 2020? That's partially up to you! Here's how it works:
+
+* Anyone and everyone in the Rust community writes a blog post about what they'd like Rust development to be like in 2020.
+* The core team reads all the posts, and writes up a "Roadmap RFC" to make a formal proposal.
+* The RFC is reviewed by everyone, comments are made, adjustments are made, and eventually it is accepted.
+* This RFC is a guide to either accept or postpone RFCs for 2020. If a proposal fits into the themes of what we want to accomplish, we'll take it, but if it doesn't, we'll put it off until the next year.
+
+This process takes time, and it won't *quite* be complete before 2020 starts.
+
+* We'll review the posts December 1. That gives you a month to think about Rust in 2020 and write something up.
+* We'll aim to produce the RFC draft in the week or two after
+* Depending on how many comments the RFC gets, we may not end up accepting it until early January.
+
+## What we're looking for
+
+We are accepting ideas about almost anything having to do with Rust: language features, tooling needs, community programs, ecosystem needs... if it's related to Rust, we want to hear about it.
+
+One big question for this year: will there be a Rust 2021 edition? If so, 2020 would be the year to do a lot of associated work and plan the details. What would the edition's theme be? 
+
+Rust 2015: Stability
+Rust 2018: Productivity
+Rust 2021: ?
+
+Let us know what you think!
+
+## Please share these posts with us

+Thanks for helping make Rust awesome! We are looking forward to doing amazing things in 2020.
