Nothing in my comment is about a "one man" setup. Core Rust devs hang out in the Discord server. They don't hang out in the IRC channel.
>Culturally, there's more of a "pitch in to help" and less "ask before touching". So people are mostly looking for hand-holding, "How do I?" and "Is this correct?" rather than decisions and permission.
I'm not sure why you're assuming that the Zig channel is about "decisions and permission", but it's not. It's about language discussion just like the Rust IRC channel and Rust Discord are.
