The Rust for CPython community shares a progress update on integrating Rust into CPython. The build system now successfully compiles CPython with Rust across all tested platforms in CI. The team has shifted the target from Python 3.15 to 3.16, giving more time to refine the implementation and discuss the upcoming PEP. The roadmap covers API design planning in April-May, PEP drafting in June, and PEP submission in July, with the goal of completing discussion before the 3.16 beta 1 in May 2027. Community contributions are welcome via Discord and weekly Monday meetings.
