Intent Proposal Mailing Date 2026-02 Pre-Croydon Author(s) Jon Bauman, Timur Doumler, Nevin Liber, Ryan McDougall, Pablo Halpern, Jeff Garland, Jonathan Müller Target Audience EWG Tracking issue View on GitHub Abstract In recent years there have been numerous recommendations from industry, academia and government to prefer “memory-safe languages”1.
