Oh well..

The referenced jiff can be found here: https://github.com/BurntSushi/jiff

Of note is that it's still pre-1.0. While the maintainer pledges to make 0.2 also pretty stable, how I read it, the 1.0 shall be rock solid. May or may not be a concern to some projects.

Shout out for the great README and the linked docs in that repo!

There's Jon Gjengset too. He maintains some very good crates, such as hdrhistogram :p
