Rust accepts a 2026-2027 project goal for Move and Forget traits, with the stated aim of deprecating Pin rather than extending it

Sources: project goal, HN discussion
Summary: The Rust project accepted a 2026-2027 goal to add Move and Forget traits. The document names deprecating Pin entirely as the eventual aim rather than extending it. Changing the Future trait, the only stable trait that depends on Pin, is stated as out of scope for this year.
Why it matters: Pin is the current encoding of immovability, so the stated direction for Pin-based async code and Rust-for-Linux is replacement rather than the ergonomics work proposed for 2025H2.
Follow-up: Track whether Move and Forget reach a nightly implementation and what the Future trait migration looks like.
