| 15 | +3. Introduction of new members |
| 16 | +4. Coverage of MISRA C and CERT C in 2026 (Félix / Markus updates) |
| 17 | +- MISRA C one has a [PR up](https://github.com/rustfoundation/safety-critical-rust-coding-guidelines/pull/432) from Markus |
| 18 | + - Félix is working on CSS to make the tables more legible by allowing them to be shown more widely. |
| 19 | + - Oreste: Pick up CERT C Markdown tables in tracking issue and open up a PR similar in nature to the [PR from Markus](https://github.com/rustfoundation/safety-critical-rust-coding-guidelines/pull/432) |
| 20 | + 1. Issue, where it’s written up in Markdown: [https://github.com/Safety-Critical-Rust-Consortium/safety-critical-rust-coding-guidelines/issues/336](https://github.com/Safety-Critical-Rust-Consortium/safety-critical-rust-coding-guidelines/issues/336) |
| 21 | + 2. Turn into a PR with the tables in ReStructured Text (RST) |
| 22 | +5. Interest in the MISRA C++ mapping |
| 23 | +- Pete/Alex are working out how we can have some kind of copy of the MISRA documents (C, C++) held in the jurisdiction of the Rust Foundation in support of members to be able to work on coding guidelines. Still in communication with MISRA folks. |
| 24 | +- Please register interest on [this Zulip thread](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/channel/579369-safety-critical-consortium.2Fcoding-guidelines/topic/MISRA.20C.2B.2B.20Mapping.20Interest/with/584764785) |

| 74 | + |
| 75 | +- xx |
| 76 | + |
| 77 | +## **Meeting Minutes** |
| 78 | + |
| 79 | +- Confirmation if everything’s alright with previous meetings’ minutes; all good, none against |
| 80 | +- Introduction of new members\! Two new members join us |
| 81 | +- **\[MISRA C\]** |
| 82 | + - Work on the appendix’s formatting is being done; mainly fixes in how the tables are shown |
| 83 | +- **\[CERT C\]** |
| 84 | + - Pending task to format the tables accordingly (Markdown conversion \- formatted text); should be sent as a PR to be merged |
| 85 | + - Suggestion to use `pandoc` to convert Markdown to other formats (like RST) |
| 86 | +- **\[MISRA C++\]** |
| 87 | + - Interest in checking out rules specific to C++ that may involve concepts like polymorphism |
| 88 | + - Communication through the Zulip thread is highly encouraged\! If there’s any need for a review or help with a rule volunteers are more than encouraged to leave a message |
| 89 | +- **\[Walk-In Items\]** |
| 90 | + - Consortium mailing list has been sent a Lettucemeet to check availability for RustConf of SCRC members that will attend |
| 91 | + - ADACore has agreed to fund a room at RustConf; ongoing talks to figure out the best structure for the deal |
| 92 | + - *Suggestion regarding GH organization:* creation of topics that combine common subjects to better keep track of conversations; aim is to reduce fragmentation |
| 93 | +- **\[CERT C Review Batches\]** |
| 94 | + - **Group 1:** |
| 95 | + - ARR38: Full agreement |
| 96 | + - STR32: Agreement for safe Rust, but when doing interop with C libraries you will likely work with raw pointers that point to zero terminated and non-zero terminated buffers, which could be confused. Therefore, it should be considered to update the classification from “Does not map to Rust” to “Maps directory to Unsafe Rust”. Furthermore, the \`CString\` and \`CStr\` types should be acknowledged by the Rationale explicitly for completeness. |
| 97 | + - **Group 2:** |
| 98 | + - **ERR33:** |
| 99 | + - Suggest that there’s a Clippy lint (`clippy::unused_results`) that can force `Return` return values ([https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=stable\&mode=debug\&edition=2024](https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=stable&mode=debug&edition=2024)) |
| 100 | + - Extra context: [https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=stable\&mode=debug\&edition=2024\&gist=ec6c707cad086431258894b336654df8](https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=stable&mode=debug&edition=2024&gist=ec6c707cad086431258894b336654df8) |
| 101 | + - **INT33:** Suggestion to add a reference link to the specific rule that covers it if that’s the case |
| 102 | +- **\[ROUNDTABLE\]** |
| 103 | + - Clarification regarding the established rules found in, for example: [https://coding-guidelines.arewesafetycriticalyet.org/coding-guidelines/expressions/index.html](https://coding-guidelines.arewesafetycriticalyet.org/coding-guidelines/expressions/index.html) |
| 104 | + - Request for PR regarding the clarification issues |
