My comment was speaking in a general context.

I’ve seen the video and I agree with Ted. Anyone with experience understands creep, and although Wedson denies it it’s exactly where they’re headed. Ted and others are right to voice these concerns and attempt to set very clear expectations for the rust developers.

They took on the task knowing it was experimental, would be difficult, and that they would be second class citizens - you don’t get to agree to the terms and then complain about them later.

then complain about them later.

I don’t see where they’re complaining? They don’t seem to be asking anything of the C devs other than help with API definitions.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
