Hi, here is the initial commit for the Rust sliding-window implementation. Would you like me to add you as authors in the Cargo.toml? 🙂

scotts commented 4 years ago

I view the authors field of the metadata for a particular software library as meaning the authors of the software itself. Since you authored the library, but not myself or my other co-authors, I think it's appropriate to keep you as the sole author for now. That would change as others contribute to the Rust implementations.

We'll see how this project evolves, but it may end up hosting related but independent libraries. Each implementation language is going to have its own quirks, such as what the interface is and how to do testing. In that setting, it makes sense to have different sets of authors on each language's library.
