. IfCargo.lock
ends up having an unexpectedly old version of the dependency, you might get a dependency that lacks features/APIs or important bugfixes that you depend on. This is most likely to happen when using theminimal-versions
flag, used by users of old Rust versions.If you want to keep using truly minimal dependency requirements, please make sure you test them in CI with
-Z minimal-versions
Cargo option, because it's very easy to accidentally use a feature added in a later version.Latest stable release is old
It's been over 5 years. Is this crate still maintained? Make a new release, either to refresh it, or to set

(or
"as-is"
,"passively-maintained"
).If the crate is truly stable, why not make a 1.0.0 release?
