Have you talked to the Infra Team about getting this to work?

I haven't. I didn't think it was a large enough priority to bring up. I can bring it up on Tuesday if you think it's worth doing

If you feel worried that we're not getting a sufficient sample of the ecosystem on this basis, then it seems worth reaching out.

Including Windows specific crates would be a much higher priority IMO. It's not that I'm worried that we aren't getting a sufficient sample, I just don't think we should pretend that it's more than exactly that: A sufficiently large sample

OK, I was concerned because you were talking about putting "too much trust" in a Crater run, but if you feel like it's by-and-large a sufficient sample (which I believe as well), then I think it's just a question of precise phrasing, which I don't care much about here.

I definitely don't think a crater run should be used as a justification for a breaking change, since not all Rust code is open source, and not all open source code is on http://crates.io . But for what it is trying to do, I think it's definitely a good sample

I mean, no question Crater is a used as a mean to gauge "permissible" breakage, i.e. things that are permitted by our official SemVer policy but where we don't want to cause significant pain in the ecosystem. Is that what you mean? If so, do you have an alternative in mind?
