I would like to suggest a topic on somehow improving the way small, but annoying, issues are handled. Currently it seems like PR's and issues are piling up with e.g. the STM32F103xx-hal and some other crates and I feel like there should be more pushing to resolve such issues.

A few examples of issues I am talking about:

• STM32F103 not on crates.io (preventing any further crates with examples from being pushed)
• Embedded-HAL having any forms of input pins marked as unproven / general difficulty of being able to use input pins (also in Linux-embedded-hal)
• Broken docs PR's not being pulled (Disable Jekyll to enable examples in Github pages japaric/stm32f103xx-hal#85)
• I2C missing / despite some PR's seemingly being available

It would be nice if we could get the very basics working, even if some of it does have to be broken at some stage. I get the feeling some of this may be related to @japaric being very busy, but in this case it would be nice if we could find others to merge pull requests etc. for some of these "core" projects.

@rudihorn #46 is related, but doesn't mention the crate.
