Very cool to see this finally go out, and especially the new Foundation. I have to wonder though if it's too late though. I gave up waiting for a new Rocket release years ago and have been doing what Rust web work I've been doing on Axum instead - the integration with Tower is very nice.

Agreed. When I first considered porting small APIs over to Rust, Rocket appeared to be the most popular besides Actix. Axum hadn't even came out (it came out a month later and we ended up using it even though it was in its infancy). It's pretty unfortunate because Rocket could be amazing but the lack of updates killed it. See you guys in 5 years when v0.6 comes out.
