I don’t understand why the R4L are even trying to get it into THE kernel at this point. Especially after the open hostility, but also after basically offering to be “downstream” of whatever C people do.
The difference to forking and gradually transitioning things to Rust seem technically minimally negative and socially enormously positive to me.
And when and if people want to use the linux kernel with Rust, made by the R4L people, they would then be able to do that? Idk.
I have no stakes in either side, so I don’t really care.
