>If you offer code to the public – and present it as an active, dependable project

Not familiar with the project or Rust Ecosystem. Anyone else can comment whether it was presented / marketed / sold as an "active, dependable project" ?

As someone more used to the Ruby Rails ecosystem, I think the communities as a whole generally accept the convention that all open sources, whether they are backed by a single person or cooperate account, are given out as it is ( MIT ) and their maintainer or author will do the support or development as they could when they are FREE. And it is perfectly acceptable of forking it to make your own variation or improvement.
