> Hickory DNS will work to support backward compatibility with three Rust versions.

Is this something many Rust projects do? We are at 1.93 now and 1.90 is from september 2025. The Rust community is crazy if they think this is normal. This is for DNS a stable component of the system.

    That's the policy, but we've been a bit more conservative in practice. `main` currently targets 1.88, but that's only because a security issue in the time crate has forced our hand (one reason I don't like the time crate all that much). Before that, it was 1.83 (from November 2024). Our last release targets 1.71 (from July 2023).
