I wouldn't correct you if this was a general community where the internet gantry hangs in numbers like the multiple !linux communities, but let's keep things more factual here in !rust.

After Wedson quit months ago, no one from the Rust-For-Linux effort has quit/resigned/whatever. No one quit who is relevant to current mainline kernel development in general, either.

There is a difference between the actual Rust-For-Linux team, and Rust proponents who may write kernel code out-of-tree, or may happen to still be listed as maintainers in a dead poor GPU driver. Confusing the two is good for drama, but let's not do that here.

And the bad boy maintainer is entitled to his opinion (which I disagree with of course). An opinion which will always be more informed and relevant than 99.999% of whatever the internet gantry has been contributing.

He is entitled to his opinion, he is not entitled to insult people because of that though and he should not be allowed to influence the course of the project as a whole in this major way if he couldn't even be arsed to bring his opinion when everyone else was having that discussion three years ago.
