Felőlem

Felőled lehet, csak Torvalds felől nem. Ha a cél a mainline kernelbe kerülés, akkor eléggé szűk a mozgástered. A Rust egy olyan nyelv, amit lehet, hogy Torvalds és az alrendszer karbantartók sem basznak majd ki, mint macskát szarni:

In other words, we would love to see Rust used everywhere (of course)
but we have to be mindful about where/how we introduce it (we are not
even in mainline yet), and be as much in agreement as possible with
maintainers where it may affect them.
