Niko Matsakis explains how Rust uses editions to introduce breaking changes without breaking existing code.

Breaking changes where no code breaks. Sounds impossible, no? But in the Rust language, you might say that we like to do impossible things. It isn't easy. You may ask, how do we manage such a thing? That I can tell you in one word... Edition!

Why it's here
