    First of all, the only thing that'd matter is for modifying your dependencies at the moment. If you've previously built the project, and don't touch your deps, GitHub won't be hit. Second, Cargo only depends on GitHub for the index. For more: http://integer32.com/2016/10/08/bare-minimum-crates-io-mirro... That includes a link to a mirror run by integer32.

    I won't comment on Rust's future, as I am quite biased ;) There is already one Rust-oriented consultancy: http://integer32.com/ and a few people that have done contracting/freelancing a bit. Overall, we're still generally seeing people add Rust to their existing teams' repertoire rather than hiring Rust engineers specifically. But it's all moving quite fast; https://www.rust-lang.org/en-US/friends.html started less…
