dizietI have declared rc-dlist-deque, my doubly-linked list library for Rust, to be 1.0.0. Little has changed, apart from the version number and some documentation updates.
In particular, I thought I would expand on my previous comments to the effect that you don't want a doubly linked list in Rust.
I've added a survey of the existing doubly linked list crates. (Please click through; I would prefer not to put a copy here in this blog which I would then also have to update if I update the table...)
Most of these crates, sadly, are not really useful. Perhaps people have been publishing their training exercises? (A doubly linked list makes a really bad Rust training exercise, too...)
