Description

Hello, Rustup team,

We noticed you posted a Call for Testing for rustup a week ago. If you would like to broaden the reach of that CfT, please put a call-for-testing label here: https://github.com/rust-lang/rustup/labels/call-for-testing.

We'll pick it up, add it to the current issue of This Week in Rust and will let you know we've done so.

Thanks, as always for your hard work!
